Abstract
When the government comes knocking with a subpoena in hand, companies need to launch an internal investigation to uncover potential wrong doing and determine how to respond to the government. The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has made it very clear that it will focus intently on the robustness of a firm’s commitment to compliance with applicable laws when determining how to address potential wrongdoing.
A firm’s compliance infrastructure and its financial and cultural commitment to that infrastructure will figure prominently in how the government evaluates a company’s conduct. However, unique challenges and complexities have started to emerge in connection with the ability to monitor and increasingly remote work force, and organizations will have to be proactive in ensuring their compliance programs keep up with these changes.
In this LIVE CLE Webcast, FDA compliance and enforcement attorney Beth Weinman (Ropes & Gray) and DOJ Consumer Protection Branch Prosecutor John Claud (U.S. Department of Justice), will discuss best practices for investigating potential misconduct and engaging with and responding to DOJ when it has launched an investigation into such misconduct, with a significant focus on the role that effective compliance programs play. While focused on DOJ investigations, the best practices addressed are broadly applicable to all government investigations.
Some of the major topics that will be covered in this course are:
• Government Investigation Trends and Developments
o Government Investigations Under the Biden Administration
o Implications of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Conducting Government Investigations
• Identifying Red Flags
• Common Risks and Pitfalls
• Key Considerations When Your Company is Subject to an Investigations
• Best Compliance Practices
