Evelyn Sheehan Unpacks Penalty Phase Developments in WWCDA’s Global Enforcement Panel


December 12, 2022

As global law enforcement agencies – including and especially the U.S. Department of Justice – continue to extend their reach far beyond their borders, more individuals and entities will be subject to penalties from those jurisdictions, including asset forfeiture, clawbacks and criminal sentencing. Clients and their advisors should understand how recent developments in this area could affect their risk and exposure.

Kobre & Kim’s Evelyn Sheehan – the former deputy chief of the Asset Forfeiture Division at the Southern District of Florida – will share her insights during a panel hosted by the Women’s White Collar Defense Association (WWCDA) at 12:00 pm Washington DC time, December 13, 2022.

The panel, “The Penalty Phase: Developments in Sentencing, Forfeiture, and Clawbacks,” is the fourth part in the WWCDA’s 2022 Global Enforcement & Compliance Series. The cross-border panel of professionals with extensive enforcement experience will also include Stacy Bogert of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC); Deborah Connor of Morrison Foerster; Steven Fitzpatrick of the UK Serious Fraud Office (SFO); and Claire Murray of the U.S. Sentencing Commission. The panel will be moderated by Hartley West of Dechert and Amanda Raad of Ropes & Gray, and is open to the public.
