U.S. law governing the export of aerospace or space-related technologies is complicated and can impose heavy penalties for violations. Holland & Hart's attorneys have been at the forefront of several high-profile defense efforts involving the export of aerospace technologies. We have represented prominent space industry companies and aerospace specialists with regard to U.S. grand jury and congressional investigations into alleged export violations. In addition to defense work for companies and individuals targeted by enforcement actions, the firm has conducted internal investigations and developed compliance programs for a number of the industry's major corporations. We routinely counsel companies on licensing issues and the development of appropriate contractual relationships with suppliers and other related parties with the aim of avoiding regulatory problems.

Space-related projects often involve contracts with domestic and foreign entities as well as various government agencies.

In any contract negotiations, national and international rules prohibiting corruption of foreign officials can impact significantly a company's operations. Mistakes in this arena can result in substantial penalties. Holland & Hart successfully represents clients with regard to U.S. anti-corruption laws and has assisted numerous companies in defense and compliance efforts.
