Client Testimonials

Roger is an excellent attorney who always provides thoughtful, accurate and consistent advice. He is very responsive to client inquiries and uses time and resources wisely to provide reliable advice. Roger has represented companies operating in all types of industries and in countries all over the world. In the area of anti-corruption/FCPA matters and investigations, there are very few attorneys who have the depth of experience and knowledge of the law as Roger.

Roger Witten is an exceptional lawyer in matters relating to the FCPA. He has a deep understanding of the law and dispenses very wise counsel. My regard for him is extremely high.
