Ken Weigel, a partner in the firm’s International Trade & Regulatory Group, has over 30 years of experience in advising companies on all aspects of international trade regulatory issues.

In these areas, he represents companies before the agencies and the courts in audits, civil and criminal investigations and disclosures; he also assists clients by providing advice on—and designing and implementing—import and export compliance programs.
