Women's White Collar Defense Association — Restitution & Forfeiture Panel
By Jeff Grant
Our November 2025 Tuesday Night Speaker Series event was a panel on restitution and forfeiture presented by the Women's White Collar Defense Association (WWCDA). The presentation, which was open to the public, took place via Zoom on November 11, 2025.
The Women's White Collar Defense Association is a preeminent organization of women attorneys, law students, and other professionals who specialize in white collar criminal defense. WWCDA members represent clients in the full spectrum of white collar matters — from internal investigations and grand jury proceedings to trials and appeals.
The panel addressed one of the most practically devastating aspects of white collar cases: restitution and forfeiture orders. Panelists discussed how these orders are calculated, when and how they can be challenged, and what defendants and their families need to understand about long-term financial obligations imposed by the court.
