Waller Lansden has successfully represented companies, boards of directors and individual executives in a broad range of federal, state and local regulatory and criminal investigations and proceedings. Waller Lansden conducts internal investigations on behalf of our clients and works closely with our clients to craft compliance programs to detect and correct problems before they become the subject of governmental scrutiny. This experience spans a wide range of industries and practice areas, including antitrust, securities, healthcare, banking, government contracting, environmental regulations and corporate governance issues, among others.
To best serve our corporate clients, Waller Lansden's White Collar group includes attorneys who are experienced in helping clients respond to and survive government investigations with strategies that minimize -- or avoid completely -- sanctions, negative publicity and disruptions to core business operations. Our experienced team of attorneys includes former Assistant U.S. Attorneys, a former Assistant State Attorney General and the former Attorney General of the State of Tennessee. Attorneys in Waller Lansden's White Collar group work closely with attorneys in other practice areas, particularly Healthcare, to ensure that our clients benefit from the breadth and depth of the firm's collective expertise. This multidisciplinary approach creates critical strategic advantages for Waller Lansden's clients, both in the creation of effective compliance programs and in responding to government inquiries or enforcement actions.
