Hilder & Associates, P.C.

Hilder & Associates, P.C., in Houston, Texas, focuses on white collar criminal defense and represents individuals, executives, companies and other entities facing complex legal matters nationwide. We handle sophisticated federal and state investigations and prosecutions involving financial, corporate and regulatory issues, providing personalized strategies from the earliest stages of an investigation through trial and, when necessary, appeal. Our experience also extends to related civil and administrative litigation, allowing us to address the multiple legal issues that can arise from a government investigation.

White collar matters often involve substantial financial interests, business consequences and complicated questions of law. We represent clients in cases involving securities fraud, financial crimes, mortgage and bank fraud, healthcare fraud, FCPA violations, antitrust matters and other allegations. We also handle grand jury investigations, internal corporate investigations and matters involving corporate officers and executives. When a client or company comes under scrutiny, we work to identify potential issues early and develop a defense designed to protect their interests, with the goal of avoiding indictment when possible.

Our work extends beyond defending an existing investigation or prosecution. We develop corporate compliance programs tailored to a company's particular operations and legal risks, including programs addressing healthcare fraud, FCPA violations, antitrust concerns and theft. At the request of corporate clients, we also conduct internal investigations to identify potential criminal violations and help organizations address issues before they escalate.

We represent whistleblowers and clients pursuing qui tam claims, as well as individuals involved in healthcare fraud matters. Our practice also includes securities and financial litigation, appellate and post-conviction representation, FCPA matters and related civil and administrative proceedings. In addition, we represent attorneys in grievance matters and understand the importance of protecting confidential information when professional conduct issues arise.

At Hilder & Associates, P.C., we are selective about the nature and number of matters we accept so we can devote focused attention to complex cases. Whether you are facing a federal or state investigation, criminal charges, a grand jury inquiry, regulatory concerns or a compliance issue, we work to provide a carefully developed legal strategy tailored to your circumstances.
