Steptoe
Steptoe’s investigations and enforcement practice is distinguished by its focus on matters that sit at the intersection of law, policy and enforcement, where legal risk is inseparable from geopolitical, regulatory and commercial dynamics. For the tenth consecutive year, Steptoe has been named to the Global Investigations Review GIR 30, underscoring its position among the world’s leading international investigations practices.
What sets Steptoe apart is the depth of its experience advising on investigations that arise not only from alleged misconduct, but from shifts in sanctions policy, trade enforcement priorities, and national security regulation. The practice advises on FCPA and other anti bribery and corruption matters, as well as economic sanctions, export controls, AML and fraud, frequently in situations involving parallel civil, criminal and regulatory exposure across multiple jurisdictions.
Steptoe’s investigations work is inherently global. The firm regularly represents clients headquartered in Europe, Asia and South America, alongside US companies engaged in global trade and international operations, particularly where investigations intersect with sanctions, export controls and other trade related regulatory regimes. These matters often demand co ordinated, multi jurisdictional responses, carefully balancing legal exposure with policy, commercial and reputational considerations.
As enforcement becomes more politicised and globalised, Steptoe is trusted for investigations where strategic judgement is as critical as legal analysis.

Morvillo Abramowitz Grand Iason & Anello PC
For over 50 years, Morvillo Abramowitz Grand Iason & Anello PC has been at the forefront of advising companies and individuals on complex white collar and regulatory matters and sophisticated business disputes. We are best known for our unparalleled trial experience. Our practice includes the representation of individual and institutional clients in all phases of criminal and civil proceedings. Over the past several years we have tried numerous cases, including high profile white-collar matters in the federal and state courts, complex civil trials and arbitrations in New York and throughout the country, and criminal cases in which we served as appointed counsel for indigent defendants under the Criminal Justice Act. In addition to our trial practice, we regularly engage in pre-indictment advocacy and pre-trial negotiations and handle appeals of both criminal and civil matters. We also conduct sensitive internal investigations for our institutional clients, serve as independent counsel for boards of directors, and have represented such clients in related government investigations as well.
Our firm’s size promotes efficiencies and maximizes the service we provide to our clients. We are agile and able to quickly move the right talent to where specific expertise is needed. We are small enough to engage in a constant exchange of ideas and information, which permits the full breadth of the firm’s aggregate experience to be applied for the benefit of each client, and large enough to add lawyers at virtually any seniority level when the case warrants a larger team, or when the client so requests.
