The Recent Surge in U.S. Law Enforcement against Chinese Companies

Los Angeles, CA

Blank Rome Partners Carlos Ortiz and Mike Margolis will speak at an MCLE luncheon with members of the Cornell Law School Alumni Association and other distinguished guests taking place on Monday, April 1, 2019, from 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., in Los Angeles, California.

Since the November 2018 announcement by the U.S. Attorney General of a new “China Initiative” using enhanced law enforcement and other activities to counter perceived Chinese threats to U.S. national security there have been multiple news stories about U.S. law enforcement activities targeting Chinese companies and nationals.

Carlos and Mike will be joined by Jennie Wang, Assistant United States Attorney, Los Angeles, to discuss “The Recent Surge in U.S. Law Enforcement Against Chinese Companies,” including:

  • What is the Department of Justice’s new “China Initiative”?
  • How is it being implemented, and what may the future bring?
  • What should Chinese companies do to minimize their risk in this new environment?

Attendees will be eligible to receive 1.75 hours of California MCLE credit. MCLE credit is free of charge.
