Steven Tyrrell Named Top U.S. FCPA Practitioner by GIR in 2021

June 15, 2021

White Collar Defense, Regulatory and Investigations practice Co-Head Steven Tyrrell has been named to 'The Top FCPA Practitioners' by Global Investigations Review. The guide recognizes just 30 of the country's leading lawyers and forensic advisers in the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act space.

The profile highlighted Steve's unparalleled experience as a top corporate defense lawyer and former Chief of the U.S. Department of Justice's Fraud Section - and his record of success that stands among the very best in the FCPA field.

GIR noted that Steve 'has a declination record that few lawyers can match,' including the successful representation of Sanofi, Vantage Drilling, HMT LLC and others in major FCPA investigations. He is widely recognized as 'a sophisticated and nuanced lawyer who knows the ins and outs of the FCPA' and an 'an ardent advocate for his clients.'

GIR selected the honorees based on extensive market research, including interviews with 130 industry insiders. The publication limited its selections to one practitioner, at most, per firm.
