The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Convention have increased the reach and scope of federal anti-bribery efforts. In recent years, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice have dramatically increased their enforcement efforts. Hoffman Angeli LLP has represented a number of clients in matters involving allegations of bribery, public corruption, FCPA violations, contracting and program fraud, and alleged bid rigging schemes.
