Andy Kaplan is an associate in the firm’s Government Investigations & White Collar Defense practice. He represents entities and individuals in a wide range of litigation and investigation matters.

My focus

I represent clients in government enforcement matters, including False Claims Act lawsuits, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and international corruption investigations, white-collar defense and government enforcement matters. I also have experience advising clients on regulatory and compliance matters, including anti-corruption, anti-bribery, sanctions risk, and potential acquisition due diligence. My practice also includes securities, contract, and fiduciary duty litigation. In addition, I maintain an active pro bono practice.

I have conducted oral arguments on motions to dismiss; drafted motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment; drafted discovery requests and motions; attended and summarized deposition results; interviewed witnesses and prepared witnesses for interviews by government officials and opposing counsel; managed discovery including drafting search terms, reviewing documents, and analyzing and summarizing findings.

Looking ahead

I’m following the increasing number of anti-corruption statutes and policies enacted by countries around the world. These laws, coupled with the increased focus on—and resources devoted to—enforcement of anti-corruption laws in the U.S., suggest that international companies of all sizes should be aware of their compliance obligations in this space.
