Jennifer Beidel Appointed To Serve as Michigan Chapter Leader of the Women’s White Collar Defense Association

Dykema is proud to share that Jennifer Beidel was selected to serve as Michigan Chapter Leader of the  Women’s White Collar Defense Association. 

The Michigan Chapter of the Women's White Collar Defense Association was formed in 2016. The group focuses on connecting women in Michigan who engage in government enforcement or white collar criminal defense work as private practitioners or consultants. The group provides professional and practice development opportunities, both locally and nationally.

As a former federal prosecutor, Beidel is a highly effective advocate who uses the insights, investigative experience, and courtroom acumen she gained in that role to guide and protect organizations and individuals in internal investigations, corporate compliance matters, and white-collar criminal defense cases. In civil and criminal matters involving a broad range of regulatory regimes, she protects the interests of a diverse cross-section of clients in heavily regulated industries, including healthcare, life sciences, food and agriculture, cannabis, and financial services. 

During her years as an assistant U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York, Beidel was a member of the Complex Frauds and Cybercrime Unit. She led investigations and prosecutions in various areas, including tax fraud, healthcare fraud, cybercrime, bank and wire fraud, securities fraud, consumer fraud, bribery, and money laundering. She also worked closely with numerous government agencies, including the FBI, SEC, IRS, DEA, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Labor, Secret Service, Postal Inspection Service, and New York State Department of Financial Services.
