Highly regarded for its risk advisory capabilities, the government, regulatory, and internal investigations offering at Kirkland & Ellis International LLP stands out for its strength in handling non-financial misconduct investigations, an area of recent focus for the group. Marcus Thompson leads the team and is a seasoned financial crime specialist, with particular expertise advising private equity clients on business crime and risk mitigation. Patrick Navein’s expertise encompasses corporate compliance, money laundering issues, and economic sanctions; the latter is another core pillar of work for the group, with Shruti Chandhok being another name to note here.
