After gaining experience as a litigation associate at two national law firms and as a federal prosecutor, Mr. Libby joined Manatt Phelps & Phillips as a partner in 1995. At Manatt, he developed and managed significant institutional client engagements in several industries, including healthcare and financial services. For these clients, Mr. Libby served as the primary litigation and white-collar partner and handled their most complex and sensitive matters.
As a lawyer Mr. Libby also undertook many sensitive internal investigations in response to inquiries by federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, with resulting unique perspective on the internal dynamics of corporations. Mr. Libby’s legal work also resulted in frequent international travel and interactions with counsel and clients in many jurisdictions, including the U.K., Switzerland, Israel, Mexico, Canada, Sweden, China, Hong Kong and India. Mr. Libby also handled significant official and ad hoc management responsibilities at Manatt, including serving on the Board and Associate Review Committee and supervising the Litigation and White-Collar Practice Groups.
