From The Posse List:
As we have indicated in numerous posts over the last year, foreign language document reviews have dominated the U.S. contract attorney market due to the continuing increase in FCPA cases and IP litigation. It has provided a stream of work from firms such as Baker & McKenzie and Kirkland & Ellis which have strong FCPA practices, and now more work from Arnold & Porter which last year added a major FCPA partner. And an even bigger factor: other countries are starting to enforce laws similar to the FCPA.
Note: we try to cover the FCPA “marketplace” best we can (see all our FCPA posts on this page) but we rely on two of the most influential and cited FCPA blogs: Tom Fox (our “Mr FCPA Nuts & Bolts”) and his blog FCPA Compliance and Ethics (click here) plus Richard Cassin, FCPA guru and author of The FCPA Blog (click here). Incidentally, both blogs were cited as the “go to blogs” for FCPA coverage at last week’s BizNow FCPA event with the DOJ and SEC.
