In addition to Peter's criminal defense and qui tam concentrations, Peter also offers expert counseling on fraud and abuse issues, as well as assistance in designing corporate compliance programs and business codes of conduct, monitoring business practices for compliance with legal and

ethical manner at all times» (emphasis added); and (iii) his deliberate concealment of his actions which he later acknowledged to have been wrong and unethical.
