Our client, a senior executive at a major financial institution, faced federal charges including securities fraud, wire fraud, and conspiracy in connection with alleged accounting irregularities. The case attracted significant media attention and posed serious threats to our client's career and reputation.

The government's case was built on circumstantial evidence and the testimony of cooperating witnesses, requiring a sophisticated defense strategy to challenge the prosecution's narrative.
