Andrew M Friedman

I primarily represent clients involved in government investigations. I have defended some of the largest corporations in the country in criminal and civil investigations and prosecutions, as well as in parallel administrative, regulatory and civil litigation. My experience includes antitrust, securities, foreign corrupt practices, banking law, hedge funds, export controls and contractor corruption. I also have significant experience counseling individuals and corporations involved in congressional investigations.

I also represent individuals in government investigations. 

In a relatively recent case, I successfully defended a telecommunications executive and business owner accused of fraud in a lengthy trial, during which my client was acquitted of all charges.  In addition to government investigations, I often represent individuals and companies in complex commercial litigation and disputes involving First Amendment issues such as defamation and invasion of privacy.

I maintain a strong interest in and commitment to representing non-profit organizations and providing legal services pro bono.
