Food Company Resolves Multistate I-9 Audit and Related Investigations

North America - United States | North America

A food processing company was audited and investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) nationwide. Our firm represented the food company in the audit and in connection with a related grand jury investigation.

The government’s investigation encompassed plants in 13 states with agents from at least 10 different ICE jurisdictions and multiple U.S. Attorneys’ offices from Virginia to California participating. The investigation and audit spanned nearly five years.

Attorneys and paralegals from our immigration and global mobility and business litigation teams collaborated to help the food company resolve the audit and investigations.
