Parvin Daphne Moyne

Parvin Moyne represents individuals and corporations in government and regulatory investigations as well as in white collar criminal defense and complex commercial litigation matters.

Formerly an assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York in the elite Securities and Commodities Fraud Task Force, Ms. Moyne has extensive experience in matters arising from allegations of securities and commodities fraud, such as market manipulation, insider trading, investment advisor fraud, accounting fraud, wire and mail fraud and tax fraud. She also investigated and prosecuted cases involving allegations of public corruption, health care fraud, international and domestic money laundering, immigration fraud, homicide, kidnapping, and international narcotics trafficking.

In her nearly decade-long tenure as a prosecutor, Ms. Moyne was lead counsel in over one hundred investigations and prosecutions, tried 10 federal criminal jury trials in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and briefed and argued more than 10 appeals before the 2nd Circuit. She also supervised junior prosecutors in four federal criminal trials. Additionally, she coordinated investigations and prosecutions with numerous law enforcement and regulatory agencies including the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), Federal Trade Commission (FTC), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, U.S. Department of Labor, New York State Attorney General’s Office and the Manhattan and Bronx District Attorney’s Offices.

Prior to her tenure at the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Ms. Moyne was law clerk to the Honorable Dennis Jacobs, the then-Chief Judge of the 2nd Circuit, for whom she drafted bench memoranda, judicial opinions and summary orders.

Ms. Moyne began her legal career as an associate at another international law firm, where she counseled clients in white collar matters, including internal investigations, potential FCPA and sanctions violations, and accounting fraud allegations.

Ms. Moyne received her J.D., magna cum laude, from New York University School of Law, where she earned membership in the Order of the Coif and served as Editor-in-Chief of the New York University Law Review.
