Global law firm White & Case LLP announced today that Daniel Levin has joined the Firm as a partner in its Global White Collar Practice in Washington, DC. Levin was previously a partner of the Firm from 2007 to 2012.

"I am delighted to work again with colleagues I have known for many years," said Levin. "I believe White & Case offers clients both an unparalleled global presence and extensive local expertise around the world."

Levin, formerly of Morgan Lewis, has advised clients on numerous internal investigations, including allegations of accounting irregularities, options backdating and violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). He also has experience providing counsel on white collar matters, the False Claims Act and complex civil litigation matters.

"Dan's arrival back at the Firm fills in an important piece of the puzzle in how we best help clients navigate the challenges associated with criminal and civil prosecution," said Darryl Lew, head of White & Case's Global White Collar Practice. "He will draw upon his regulatory experience and strong knowledge of the issues driving government regulators to help our clients address global investigations, as well as enforcement actions."

Prior to private practice, Levin held numerous government positions, including senior associate counsel to former President George W. Bush, chief of staff to former Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Robert Mueller, chief of staff to former Attorney General William Barr and counselor to former Attorney General John Ashcroft.

Levin is the latest addition to White & Case's Global White Collar Practice. His arrival follows the hiring of partner Kathleen Hamann, formerly of the US Department of Justice, where she was anticorruption policy counsel and a trial attorney assigned to the FCPA Team in the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section.

"The arrival of Daniel and Kathleen are major steps for the expansion of our Global White Collar Practice," said Scott Hershman, White & Case's Regional Section Head, Americas Disputes. "They add substantial breadth and depth to our capabilities, and will help us continue to develop a premier practice for the Firm."

The lawyers in White & Case’s Global White Collar Practice have defended the interests of clients around the world, offering them skill and experience in complex and significant white collar matters, including criminal antitrust, financial and securities fraud, public and private corruption, and money laundering. The Practice advises large corporations, banks and other institutions, as well as individuals prominent in business and political affairs, on a wide range of corporate governance, compliance, due diligence and risk-assessment issues.
