WASHINGTON, D.C. -

Arent Fox is bolstering its compliance offering, and in the process, bringing back one of its experts.

This week, the firm announced the launch of Managing Automotive Compliance, a regulatory, auditing and consulting service that is designed to help auto industry clients manage their regulatory needs.

The firm explained Managing Automotive Compliance is geared to defend automotive clients’ bottom lines against regulatory risk with “unparalleled experience, comprehensive resources and predictable pricing.”

Managing Automotive Compliance is led by automotive compliance director Lisa Singer. With more than 15 years of experience, Singer rejoined the firm’s Los Angeles office, where she will work on regulatory consulting and auditing, employment policies and procedures, training and enforcement matters.

“Lisa is an authority on compliance issues and a key person that we will rely on to expand our Managing Automotive Compliance group,” Arent Fox automotive leader Aaron Jacoby said. “Her practical counsel and real-world solutions are exactly what our automotive clients expect to receive from one of our firm’s signature practice areas.”

Singer was previously executive vice president of Auto Advisory Services (AAS), a leader in regulatory compliance and consulting. Later, upon the acquisition of AAS by KPA, Singer became KPA’s director of legal affairs.

Arent Fox highlighted Managing Automotive Compliance’s services include:

• Advertising review

• Compliance seminars

• Employee handbooks

• Review of finance practices

• On-site training

• Creating policies and procedures

• Wage and hour review

Arent Fox’s national automotive group has been recognized in Chambers USA and by the Daily Journal for “thinking outside the box for automotive clients.”

Firm officials added, “From regulatory enforcement  and consumer litigation to business transactions and government investigations, our industry-focused team helps automotive clients navigate a dizzying array of competitive and regulatory roadblocks.”
