Charles “Chuck” Duross, who secured almost $2 billion in corporate penalties as the head of the U.S. Justice Department unit devoted to pursuing foreign bribery cases, left the government to join Morrison & Foerster LLP in Washington.
Duross led the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act unit from April 2010 through Jan. 24. He oversaw several of the largest FCPA settlements in U.S. history, including those involving Alcoa Inc., Weatherford International Ltd. and Total SA. Duross also secured convictions of more than two dozen individuals.
