With experience across the full gamut of compliance and enforcement work, Morrison Foerster’s export controls and economic sanctions team is commended by sources for ‘bridging the mindset of a regulator and the private sector’. The group’s regulatory insight is due in no small part to its formidable bench of former OFAC personnel, including high-profile national security co-head John Smith, who is a former Director of OFAC. The Washington DC-based team also draws on fellow national security co-chair Brandon Van Grack, who managed the DOJ’s Voluntary Self-Disclosure Program for sanctions and export controls violations; and of counsel Andrea Delisi, who previously served as Assistant Chief Counsel at OFAC.
