• The types of billion-dollar fines recently imposed upon money center banks around the world and corporate enterprises

Mr. Christensen focuses on export controls, economic sanctions, and embargoes under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), Export Administration Regulations (EAR), and various regulations issued by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).

Larry Christensen brings several decades of experience in government, consulting, law school teaching, and globally recognized expertise in the practice of law. He works closely with foreign law firms, busy executives, engineers, and compliance personnel to:
