A first-chair trial lawyer, Kolluri represents companies and individuals in civil litigation, regulatory matters, internal and government investigations, and white collar criminal matters.

Prior to his government service, Kolluri spent six years in private practice representing clients in complex litigation, government and internal investigations, securities enforcement proceedings, class actions, labor and employment matters, health care fraud cases, and products liability disputes.
