The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced new positions in its National Security Division to support the agency’s crackdown on sanctions evasion, export control violations, and other forms of economic crime.
Ian Richardson was named the division’s first chief counsel for corporate enforcement, said the DOJ in a press release Monday. Previously, Richardson served as an assistant U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York.
The DOJ also appointed Christian Nauvel as deputy chief counsel for corporate enforcement. Nauvel most recently served as senior counsel to the assistant attorney general for the Criminal Division.
