Washington, D.C.-based FTI Consulting has appointed Shelly Mady as a senior managing director in the Data & Analytics practice within the firm’s Forensic and Litigation Consulting segment, based in Dallas.

“Shelly is widely recognized for her deep industry expertise when it comes to investigations, litigation and compliance,” David Turner, co-leader of FTI Consulting’s Data & Analytics practice, said in a statement. “We have been aware of her talent and capabilities for several years and are thrilled that Shelly has joined our team. I know her expertise will be a tremendous asset to our clients.”

The firm said that Mady’s hiring strengthens its presence in the Dallas area, which over the past few years has seen a substantial expansion of law firms, financial entities, and tech companies. In her role at FTI Consulting, Mady will focus on helping clients with internal and regulatory investigations, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act monitorships, data remediation and validation, compliance monitoring, litigation, AI readiness assessments and AI regulatory preparation and governance.

She also assisted many stakeholders in compliance, legal and risk functions with developing proactive continuous monitoring analytics.

As technology advances at an unprecedented pace, innovations like artificial intelligence present both opportunities and challenges,” Mady said. “I’m excited to partner with FTI Consulting’s Data & Analytics experts to help our clients navigate the evolving regulatory landscape.”
