Investigations, Crisis Management, & Compliance Counsel

Limehouse LLC stands ready to assist clients—from federal, state, and local government officials, employees, and entities to corporate or nonprofit officers, directors, and in-house counsel—with conducting internal investigations and responding to government inquiries, ethics complaints, and sensitive investigations and enforcement actions.  

Whether internal or external in nature, investigations require not only legal skill, but also strategic situational awareness and sensitivity to context—especially when reputational, political, or institutional consequences are on the line.  At Limehouse LLC, Thomas Limehouse approaches these matters with discretion, discipline, and an unwavering commitment to protecting the client’s interests and legal positions. 

Drawing on his experience with both initiating and responding to investigative inquiries, as well as advising public officials at the highest levels of state government on compliance-related matters, Thomas Limehouse provides discreet guidance to assist clients with navigating politically sensitive government investigations or public controversies.  When public scrutiny, political pressure, or media attention converge with actual or potential legal exposure, Limehouse LLC offers measured, confidential advice to help clients manage internal investigations, government inquiries, and sensitive communications.

Whether advising on governance strategies, identifying opportunities to enhance compliance and mitigate risk, or responding to subpoenas or records requests, Limehouse LLC advises clients navigating complex investigations where potential legal exposure may be accompanied by considerations of financial and reputational risk.  This work often involves high-profile or high-consequence matters—including ethics enforcement, legislative oversight, administrative investigations, and internal governance reviews.  Limehouse understands the legal, political, and institutional stakes involved and acts with discretion, discipline, and integrity to develop comprehensive and informed compliance strategies.

Limehouse also recognizes the critical role of internal investigations and works closely with boards, executives, public officials, legal departments, and subject-matter specialists to evaluate facts, advise on exposure, and communicate findings, all with the ultimate goals of restoring trust and ensuring compliance.  Consistent with these goals, Limehouse LLC stands with whistleblowers who expose fraud, misconduct, and illegal practices and understands that the False Claims Act can be a powerful tool to address fraud involving government contracts and programs.  To this end, Limehouse LLC is available to represent employees, contractors, and citizens who may wish to come forward to hold corporations, government agencies, and organizations accountable.
