‘Adam Schwartz is a superstar--a former AUSA in both DC and EDVA, he has both serious trial chops and experience conducting long-term, complex investigations. A lot of lawyers are good with paper--they know how to do interviews, review a lot of documents, and so on. But Adam is much more than that--he can also take a case to trial and be a deeply credible threat if that happens.’
‘What is unique is the global size and breadth of their practice group. They seem to have top people all over the globe who are handling important matters for significant corporate and individual clients). Unlike most competitors, their team has the experience to practice in local courts and before local regulators when needed. They have consistently good people in the US, in Asia Pacific and in Europe. And they have senior people who have worked at DOJ, SEC, CFTC, FEC, and OFAC.’
‘John Nathanson is my go to contact. He is experience, measured, calm, diligent, responsive and has great perspective. He assembles the right teams for the right matters, gives the right advice, and has excellent judgment. There is a reason so many sophisticated clients rely on him in some of their most important matters: because he is a great lawyer.’
