Adaobi N. Okafor, Partner, Regulatory, Precedent LLP

Adaobi N. Okafor

Partner, Regulatory

Former federal prosecutor, S.D.N.Y.

Adaobi Okafor stands between the firm's clients and the state: grand jury and agency investigations, enforcement defense, and the compliance counseling that keeps both theoretical. She spent six years in the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York before joining the firm.

Her best outcomes are declinations no one has heard about. She counts them anyway.
