Dentons has been recognized as a leading global law firm for corporate investigations in the GIR 100 2023 ranking, published by Global Investigations Review, for the fourth consecutive year.

Judith Aron, Co-Chair of Dentons Global Compliance and Investigations practice (“GCI”) (Berlin), said, “This is a proud moment for our entire team, which continues to grow and attract diverse talent across the world. We are pleased to have welcomed Arnaldo Bernardi to grow our white collar and compliance offering in Milan, Dr. Sevi Bozoglu expanding our Compliance offering in Istanbul, and Professor Jaroslav Fenyk, one of the Czech Republic’s premier criminal lawyers, joining us in Prague. We welcomed Rebecca Dix, former Associate General Counsel of the Serious Fraud Office, to our London office. Our landmark combination with Dentons Link Legal in India now expands our local knowledge in a key market, and we have also expanded our Middle East practice by welcoming Chris Brennan in Dubai. In North America we welcomed back Melissa Gomez Nelson in Washington, DC, who has handled numerous DOJ investigations, and former assistant US attorney Steve Welk in Orange County, and public law and financial services specialist Brandon Barnes Trickett in Toronto. Each new colleague builds upon the 'on-the-ground' cultural expertise that our clients seek.”

“GCI provides clients the benefit of a cross-practice team that is diverse in experience and background, including former prosecutors and law enforcement officials,” said Maxwell Carr-Howard, Co-Chair of Dentons Global Compliance and Investigations practice (Washington, DC.). “Since speed is of the essence in mitigating the adverse impact on our clients' organizations, they can rely on us to lead and coordinate large multi-jurisdictional matters in the most timely, efficient and user-friendly way. Just a snapshot of the trajectory of our North American highlights has been our Canada team’s work for Ultra Electronics Forensic Technology, where the team recently secured the second court approval of a remediation agreement (DPA) in Canadian history and the first dealing with international corruption offences. The addition of industry leaders Tony Pellegrino and Anthony Moscato have added much value to our clients operating out of the US.”

GCI brings together a team with a decade of experience, providing clients with local insight into culture and law, backed by the global experience and breadth of expertise of the world’s largest law firm. Dentons’ GCI offering is a holistic solution for clients that ensures immediate access to the right expertise wherever it is needed, calling on diverse experiences and skills sets from a variety of legal practices, strategic consultancy, and in-house former intelligence personnel.

Dentons Global Advisors brings an added dimension to compliance investigations by managing reputational issues and stakeholder concerns to position clients optimally for risk mitigation in the moment as well as for long-term success.
