The National Law Journal named Jenner & Block’s Congressional Investigations Practice among the finalists for its Crisis Management and Government Oversight Award. The award recognizes the top firms that have guided clients through government proceedings.
In a Q&A accompanying the recognition, Emily Loeb, chair of the practice, discussed our high-stakes work for clients and what sets the team apart. “Our team has a unique blend of experience—as congressional staff, as government lawyers, and in private practice—responding to some of the most high-profile congressional investigations and hearings in recent memory,” said Emily. “This experience allows us to see around corners to devise a holistic strategy to help clients be as effective as possible in advancing their overall goals.”
Clients facing hearings and investigations before the US Congress call on our bipartisan Congressional Investigations team for our extensive experience in preparing witnesses for, and defending, depositions and interviews, as well as managing the response to information requests and subpoenas. The team is frequently called upon by clients to prepare senior executives for hearings before legislative bodies across the globe. Often our clients face simultaneous legal inquiries across many different forums, including litigation and regulatory actions, on the same subject that Congress is investigating or legislating – therefore, we provide clients with a comprehensive strategy to address the issues across proceedings. Because these investigations frequently do not happen in a vacuum, we devise 360-degree strategies for clients to mitigate and anticipate related risks and handle parallel proceedings, such as civil actions, criminal and regulatory investigations, and business reputation attacks.
