Partner Francisco Cerezo was quoted in an October 16, 2013 Miami Today article titled “Miami’s international growth multiplies compliance issues.” The article discusses how the Foreign Currupt Practices Act leads to missteps. Cerezo was quoted saying, “Everybody knows that if you were to show up with a suitcase full of cash and deliver it to a government minister, that is clearly currupt, but [the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act] is more nuanced than that. There are a lot of times that well-intentioned companies that don’t think they’re doing anything wrong might be running afoul of [the law].”
