Clients trust us to bring and defend their most critical government-facing actions.
Disputes with government entities present unique challenges, and affirmative litigation against the government can often be a potent tool. Clients have long turned to us for their most high-stakes government matters – whether bringing claims against a government entity, challenging agency overreach or defending against a bet-the-company regulatory or civil action by the government.
Our team combines renowned experience litigating an array of constitutional, statutory, administrative and Administrative Procedure Act issues. We also routinely advocate for our clients in connection with examinations, appeals and consent orders before a broad range of federal and state banking regulatory agencies. Clients benefit from the deep government knowledge and experience of our litigators, many of whom have served as senior officials across the government.
We work as one team with colleagues across the firm, including in our White Collar Defense & Investigations, Financial Institutions and Tax practices, as well as our Pro Bono team.
Clients appreciate our strong track record bringing successful challenges to government action and oversight, aggressively litigating affirmative claims, and defending against regulatory and administrative actions involving a broad range of federal, state and local entities.
