He represents clients in a wide range of industries – including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, financial services, and others – that need proactive strategies to mitigate and avoid controversies related to allegations involving billing fraud, kickbacks, securities fraud, insider trading, FCPA violations, pay-to-play schemes, antitrust violations and price fixing.
Gene has guided clients to favorable outcomes in investigations and criminal prosecutions brought by the enforcement agencies that oversee their activities, including the Department of Justice (DOJ), Department of Health and Human Services, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and Texas State Securities Board.
