Advising corporations, executives, and others at all stages of criminal matters

Prosecutors around the country are increasingly expanding their views on the scope of federal criminal laws and the applicability of those laws to businesses and employees.  Subpoenas for documents, interviews, and grand jury appearances – and search warrants – are becoming more and more intrusive and more common.

Advising corporations facing government investigation

BittmanLaw leverages its government experience by working to advocate for favorable, acceptable, and discreet resolutions to our clients’ highly-sensitive legal matters. Our ultimate goal is to persuade the government to abandon the investigation and decline prosecution or other enforcement. When such a resolution is not possible, we are equipped to strenuously defend our client at the highest levels of government and in the courts.
