US firm Pepper Sullivan acquires law firm and investigative group

Internal investigations and corporate enforcement have become lucrative areas for law firms, and now Philadelphia corporate law firm Pepper Hamilton has acquired Freeh Group International Solutions, an investigative group and legal practice that investigates possible wrongdoing at companies and other institutions. Freeh Group International Solutions will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Pepper but will retain its name and operate independent of the law firm, while the lawyers at the law firm Freeh Sporkin & Sullivan join Pepper’s white-collar criminal defense practice. In all, about 25 professionals will be joining Pepper. Freeh Group International Solutions is led by Louis J. Freeh, the former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
