Received a notice from the Treasury Department – Panic mode!
I just received a formal letter from the Office of Foreign Assets Control regarding some transactions my company made last year. They are asking for a mountain of documentation and "clarifications" about our partners. I’m a nervous wreck—we’ve always tried to follow the law, but their questions are so specific and technical that I’m afraid I’ll say the wrong thing and make it worse. Has anyone here successfully defended their interests in an OFAC investigation? Do I just send them what they want, or do I need a lawyer to handle the communication?
