New York

Overview

Crowell’s New York office opened in 2006, with a powerhouse team of litigation, regulatory, and transactional lawyers. As the second-largest office of our growing international law firm, we provide strategic counsel on antitrust, corporate and financial services, financial litigation, health care, commercial litigation, sensitive government and internal investigations, and white collar and securities litigation across a wide range of industries.

Our team of leading practitioners leverages deep industry and government experience to achieve successful results for Fortune 500 companies, executives, global financial institutions, emerging companies, and leading entrepreneurs.

The office is home to several former federal prosecutors from the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York and other federal and state regulatory officials.

Our New York office has grown strategically to serve our clients’ evolving needs, nearly doubling lawyers over the last five years. These additions have bolstered our mainstay practice areas such as investigations, white collar enforcement and litigation, corporate/transactional, antitrust, labor and employment, intellectual property, insurance and health care, while allowing us to keep up with increased client demand in growing areas including privacy and cybersecurity, cryptocurrency, trade sanctions, finance and lending, litigation funding, derivatives and distressed and special situations investing.

Recently, the addition of elite corporate financial services boutique Kibbe & Orbe LLP enhanced the firm’s Wall Street presence and expanded offerings to clients in the global financial services sector—a critically important area in this competitive market.

2024 ACAMS The Assembly Hollywood Conference

The Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020 (AMLA) and subsequent amendments created a new FinCEN Whistleblower Program specifically to report potential Bank Secrecy Act, sanctions, and money laundering violations. Today, the whistleblower provisions are an important consideration as part of an institution’s BSA/AML and sanctions compliance.

Join Crowell partner Anand Sithian for an insightful panel at the 2024 Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (ACAMS) Assembly Hollywood Conference, where the panel will discuss this new program, FinCEN’s new Office of the Whistleblower, and how institutions can assess the adequacy of their internal reporting mechanisms to further ensure regulatory compliance. 

The panel will be moderated by Kelly Cooper, CAMS, Vice President, Global Financial Crimes Compliance, JPMorgan Chase & Co., and will include fellow panelist Matthew Haslinger, Executive Vice President, Chief BSA/AML/OFAC Officer, M&T Bank.

For more information on Crowell’s thought leadership on the FinCEN whistleblower program, please visit: Treasury eyes bank whistleblowers as it steps up sanctions enforcement; DOJ official: People ‘drawing the right conclusions’ on national security focus; One Year Later: Addressing Whistleblower Risks Under the AMLA
