Executive Criminal Defendants

A Q|Nav Original Story

Securities laws, intentionally vague fraud and misappropriation rules and statutes reveal the disadvantages which the executive level criminal defendant faces. Add a major dose of lawyer inexperience, PR miscues, and defendant (family-associates) fear of the unknown — and the recipe for failure dominates the landscape.

Executive Recovery Partners LLC of 2003… Q|Nav’s present day executive portal

eXrP was established by our founder Will Hoover while he was highly restricted on bond awaiting his trial.

Word got out to certain high-level CEOs that Will had organized his firm to help other white – collar type criminal defendants in specialized and unique ways.

Will teamed up with a lawyer and a nationally recognized public relations expert, Charlie Russell to help potential clients and their teams of experts build walls of defense otherwise unheard of.

For example, an exceptionally hot topic for public companies and officers in the early 2000s (passed in 2002) is the Sarbanes – Oxley Act, a federal law that established “sweeping auditing and financial regulations for public companies.”

The main areas that the Act is focused upon are:

1. Increasing criminal punishment
2. Accounting regulation
3. New shareholder protections
4. Corporate responsibility

A southern U.S. based Fortune | Forbes 500 health care company, its CEO and several high-level executives became caught up in the  S-A web of rules and regulations alleged violations.

With court approval, Mr. Hoover and team traveled to the headquarters city and commenced the intense discovery of facts and allegations including extensive interviews with the CEO, corporate lawyers, and chief internal compliance officers.

ExRp’s unique set of skills, experience and winning formula resulted in major civil and criminal reductions and penalties for its personal and corporate client and assisted executives with detailed preparations for sentencing, family financial planning, facility placement and proactive public relations.
