but I have to say, this is reassuring, meaning the quality of the people we have working in these positions.

I think the NJ AG could be quite helpful with this kind of experience:
Previously, he worked as an associate at Debevoise & Plimpton in New York City, where he focused on internal investigations and civil and criminal matters before the U.S. Attorneys Office for the Southern District of New York, the U.S. Department of Justice, the New York Department of Financial Services, and various regulatory agencies.
Above is from his bio.
