Supporting clients responding to the US designation of Mexican cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations – assessing exposure, mitigating risks, and aligning compliance programs.

Conducting workplace investigations into allegations of sexual harassment and abuse of power, providing actionable findings and clear recommendations.
