GLOBALitigation: USA
GLOBALitigation: USA is Kelley Drye's quarterly publication for international lawyers and managers of legal affairs that explores the unique challenges non-U.S. entities encounter when involved in U.S. litigation and government investigations. Our goal is to provide useful, practical and interesting information in articles that discuss trends and developments, explain U.S. procedures, and provide insights into the unwritten local customs found in courts throughout the U.S.
| GLOBALitigation: USA V1 No. 3 |
| In this third issue of GLOBALitigation: USA, we present several articles which focus on the legal risks of doing business in the United States and the steps that should be taken to reduce those risks. First, we discuss the significant scope — and far-reaching nature — of U.S. anti-money laundering statutes which require careful consideration when structuring financial affairs and relationships. Next, we discuss "piercing the corporate veil," a concept claimants in the U.S. courts often try to utilize to bring non-U.S. corporations into U.S. legal proceedings, and we discuss steps companies can take to minimize risks. Finally, we present a discussion on the increasing use of corporate monitors in resolving criminal cases brought by the U.S. Department of Justice against corporations, including the factors that must be considered wherever a monitor is part of a plea deal or deferred prosecution agreement. >> Read more |
