Show Full Article WASHINGTON, Aug. 19 -- Steptoe, a law firm, issued the following news release: * * * Steptoe Strengthens Investigations Bench with White-Collar and Regulatory Defense Partner Jennifer Loeb Steptoe LLP is pleased to announce that Jennifer Loeb has joined the firm's Washington, DC office as a partner in its Investigations, White-Collar Defense & Compliance group. A former federal prosecutor, Jenn has a nationally recognized practice representing multinational corporations, financial institutions, technology companies, and senior executives in government investigations, regulatory enforcementmatters, internal investigations, and complex civil litigation. Her arrival further strengthens Steptoe's market-leading capabilities in high-stakes investigations and crisis management at a time when companies face increasing scrutiny from federal and state regulators across a broad range of industries.

Jenn has extensive experience leading sensitive and cross-border investigations involving allegations of fraud, corruption, regulatory misconduct, workplace issues, consumer protection concerns, and compliance failures. Her addition expands the firm's Washington, DC investigations bench, enhances its ability to help clients navigate complex regulatory and enforcement risks, and adds significant experience working with state attorneys general and other key enforcement authorities.

Prior to joining Steptoe, Jenn was a partner in private practice. Earlier in her career, she served as a senior Assistant United States Attorney in the specialized sex crimes unit of the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, where she tried nearly 50 cases to verdict and argued numerous appeals before the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit and the DC Court of Appeals--experience that is particularly important when a client matter moves toward enforcement or litigation.

"Clients today need advisors who can navigate investigations from every angle, including enforcement risk, litigation exposure, reputational considerations, and board-level concerns," said Ryan Poscablo, chair of Steptoe's Investigations, White-Collar Defense & Compliance group. "Jenn brings exceptional judgment, trial experience, and credibility with regulators. Her deep experience in regulatory enforcement matters, including matters involving state attorneys general, strengthens our ability to serve clients facing heightened government scrutiny while further expanding our white-collar and government investigations capabilities in Washington, DC. Her ability to guide clients through their most sensitive matters makes her an outstanding addition to our team and a tremendous asset to our clients."

Jenn brings unique experience to the IWC group. On the regulatory and enforcement side, she has represented clients in matters initiated by the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Trade Commission, and several state attorneys general. On the compliance and governance side, she has conducted independent investigations for corporate boards and special committees, advised companies on DEI and workforce compliance issues, and counseled clients on matters relating to allegations of sensitive interpersonal workplace misconduct.

"Regulatory enforcement is becoming increasingly complex, with businesses facing simultaneous scrutiny from government agencies, shareholders, customers, and the public," Jenn said. "Steptoe's combination of elite trial talent, deep regulatory experience, and collaborative culture creates a powerful platform for helping clients manage risk, respond to investigations, and solve their most challenging problems. I'm excited to join the firm and work alongside such an exceptional group of lawyers."

Jenn earned her J.D. from the University of San Francisco School of Law.
