Working in close collaboration with its US offices, Dechert LLP leverages the firm’s global capabilities to regularly defend board members, executives, and senior directors in multijurisdictional investigations and proceedings concerning sanctions violations, market manipulation, and insider trading. Former DOJ prosecutor Roger Burlingame oversees the practice and is a key port of call for UK clients facing investigations and proceedings in the US; Matthew Mazur is another key name here. Other key members of the team include bribery specialist Tim Bowden and the ‘very persuasive’ Evan Flowers. Judith Seddon and Matthew Banham left the team in March 2024.
