An exceptional advocate in a complex white-collar investigation

When our company faced a daunting federal investigation with potential qui tam implications, we turned to John Brownlee at Holland & Knight. His 12 years of focused experience in white-collar criminal defense was immediately evident. John didn't just provide legal advice; he crafted a comprehensive strategy that addressed both the immediate criminal exposure and the underlying commercial litigation risks. His deep understanding of the interplay between these practice areas, likely honed from his recognition in them, was invaluable. John's client-centered approach meant we were always informed and felt genuinely represented, not just processed. He navigated the complexities of the DC legal landscape with absolute professionalism, ultimately securing a resolution that protected our business's future. His expertise and steady guidance were worth every penny.
