He has handled high-stakes litigation and sensitive government investigations at the most respected corporate law firms in the world.

He represented the client pro bono. ​
Later, at DLA Piper, one of the largest law firms in the world, North represented tech companies, banks, and large corporations facing serious legal threats. He specialized in counseling executives, investment firms, and corporations facing scrutiny from federal regulators and prosecutors.
