Matthew J. Feeley, a Litigation shareholder in Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney's Miami office, was featured in the "Great Case" section of BC Law Magazine's Spring/Summer 2011 issue.

The article, "On the Take," details the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act investigation into a foreign liquid natural gas consortium and Feeley's role in the defense.

"In the TSKJ case, at the same time we were navigating certain cultural barriers and conducting a factual investigation to try to figure out what had happened, we were also analyzing from a legal standpoint the reach of the FCPA," Feely explained.

"It was really an untested area, but because so much is at stake, companies haven't really challenged the FCPA's reach," he said. "It's expressly stated that if you cooperate and self-report, the relative lenience is significant."
