Foley Partner Jaime Guerrero authored an article that appeared in the Association of Corporate Counsel Focus on the SoCal Chapter newsletter on July 28, 2011 titled “Trick of the Trade: FCPA Investigations.” Guerrero discusses strategies Latin American companies might consider upon being investigated for alleged violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). He stresses the importance of selecting a dedicated e-document review company in an effort to narrow and focus the ultimate number of documents to be reviewed by the attorneys conducting the investigation. Guerrero adds that both the filtering and pre-attorney review of documents have the potential to significantly reduce the costs associated with the investigation.
