Hear a recording of McNulty’s speech now.
Mr. Paul J. McNulty joined Baker & McKenzie in 2007 after a long career of public service. He is a partner in the firm’s Washington, D.C. office, where he plays a key leadership role in the firm's Business Crimes and Investigations and Corporate Compliance and Risk Management practices.
For more than two decades, Mr. McNulty played a leading role in shaping U.S. law enforcement policy. From 2005 to 2007, he served as U.S. Deputy Attorney General, the second highest-ranking official in the Department of Justice and chief operating officer of its more than 100,000 employees. In that role, he chaired the President’s Corporate Fraud Task Force, where he oversaw several high-profile corporate fraud prosecutions. He also launched a national initiative to crackdown on fraud in government contracting.
Mr. McNulty has held other high-level positions in the United States Government including U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, Chief Counsel for the Majority Leader of the U.S. House of Representatives, Chief Counsel for the House Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Crime, and Director of Policy and Communications at the US Department of Justice.
Confirmed as U.S. Attorney three days after the terrorist attacks on September 11, McNulty was entrusted with many of the United States highest profile terrorist prosecutions.
Mr. McNulty perhaps best known in corporate circles as the author of the controlling statement on federal prosecution of business organizations – the "McNulty Memorandum" – an essential element in determining how a corporation should respond to allegations of criminal wrongdoing.
