Proof
Richard Delgado
Vice Chair
- Former AUSA, U.S. Attorney's Office (financial crimes)
- 15 yrs as FBI financial-crime special agent
- J.D., Georgetown University Law Center
Background
Richard prosecuted financial crimes for the federal government his entire career: 15 years in the FBI's financial-crime program, then six more as an assistant U.S. attorney in the white-collar division, where he handled wire fraud, money-laundering, and stolen-assets matters from investigation through trial.
As Vice Chair, he is the board's authority on what actually gets a bank to move money or an exchange to act on a freeze request. He designs our coordination workflow with law enforcement, prosecutors, and financial institutions, and he reviews which cases are strong enough to refer and which are better pursued as civil recovery.
He also advises the firm on privilege, evidence handling, and the limits of what a private recovery team can ask of a federal agency, so our strategy never outruns what will hold up in court.
What he does on the board
Richard oversees the firm's law-enforcement and prosecution strategy, signs off on any case file we hand to an agency or a court, and serves as the board's first point of contact when a recovery moves into litigation. For litigation-stage matters, the firm retains outside recovery counsel through a vetted network; Richard coordinates that engagement.
