Global Advisory Firm Bolsters Investigations and Compliance & Monitoring Capabilities with Addition of Seven Professionals in New York
New York, NY (September 26, 2018) – StoneTurn, a global advisory firm that assists companies, their counsel and government agencies on regulatory, risk and compliance issues and business disputes, today announced its continued growth with the addition of six professionals in New York. Joining StoneTurn from Lemire LLC (“Lemire”): David C. Burroughs as Partner; and four additional experienced professionals.
Driven by a host of corporate compliance risks, including digitization and cybersecurity, anti-corruption, culture & ethics transparency, a changing regulatory landscape and accelerated business growth, StoneTurn is steadily expanding around the world with the addition of senior professionals who are experts at working with attorneys, company executives and regulators to address these complex issues across all areas: Prevention & Detection; Investigations & Response; and Remediation & Monitoring and Related Litigation.
“The entire Lemire team are highly-respected advisers, specialists, and risk and regulatory compliance experts, with a particularly strong foothold in New York, where StoneTurn is experiencing the most rapid growth due to client demand,” said Christopher Martinez, Managing Partner. “We are delighted to welcome the Lemire team to StoneTurn and have no doubt their leadership and capabilities will be invaluable across both public and private sector engagements, domestically and abroad.”
One of the few woman-owned firms in the sector, Lemire advised city and state government agencies, Fortune 100 companies, law firms, real estate and construction companies, financial institutions, non-profit organizations and individuals on a range of complex compliance and investigative matters. The Lemire team is currently overseeing compliance reviews for one of the largest construction unions in the U.S. under a monitorship imposed by a federal judge relating to allegations of racketeering, bribery and related crimes. Previously, the firm led a forensic accounting and investigative team on a monitorship for a Swiss Bank on behalf of the New York State Department of Financial Services.
