Ty Howard brings the perspective of a former state and federal prosecutor to defending and counseling businesses and individuals involved in government investigations, compliance matters, False Claims Act and whistleblower cases, related business litigation, and white-collar criminal matters. As a litigator and chair of Bradley’s Government Enforcement and Investigations group, he works collaboratively with clients, across many industries, to find creative solutions to their compliance needs, to conduct sensitive investigations and negotiations, and—when necessary—to mount a vigorous defense.
Ty joined the firm after nearly a decade as a federal and state prosecutor, most recently as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the White Collar and Economic Crimes division of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Tennessee. As an AUSA, Ty led investigations and prosecutions of some of Tennessee’s largest fraud cases, first-chaired numerous jury trials, and argued successfully before the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. He previously worked as an associate in the litigation departments of two large international firms based in Philadelphia.
Ty’s practice spans several industry sectors including healthcare, financial services, and government contracting, and he regularly counsels clients on healthcare fraud and abuse, anti-corruption, and securities regulation issues.
