Dentons launched a new global business offering to bring its traditional legal services and growing consulting business together in a way that it says addresses the dramatically changing needs of global clients.
Global Compliance and Investigations (GCI) is a new group comprising lawyers, investigators, former government intelligence operatives, and other professionals around the world to help clients with the "increasingly complex web of criminal and regulatory laws governing multinational corporations," said co-chair Judith Aron. Resident in Berlin, she and her Washington-based co-chair Maxwell Carr-Howard lead a cross-practice team that has already been working together at Dentons for nearly a decade.
