Securities Litigation
Our Securities Litigation practice is nationally recognized for its winning approach to the litigation, defense and resolution of securities law and corporate law claims. Our trial-tested securities litigators have successfully resolved a wide range of disputes, from representing single individuals in small-dollar matters to major corporations, officers and directors in front-page, bet-the-company litigation.
With experience in matters spanning virtually every segment of the U.S. economy, our practice encompasses private litigation arising from federal and state securities laws, including class action lawsuits; shareholder derivative and corporate governance litigation; mergers and acquisitions litigation; representation of companies and individuals in connection with inquiries, subpoenas and investigations by regulatory agencies or prosecuting authorities; internal corporate investigations and representation of special litigation committees; and advice and counseling in connection with directors and officers insurance issues.
Our strong track record is rooted in the creativity and efficiency we bring to complex securities litigation. As recounted by a longstanding client we have represented in dozens of private civil cases, class actions and regulatory investigations and proceedings, we are “a great team with a great law firm…that was able to separate the facts from fiction and, from the start of the case, provided me the confidence that at the end of the day I would be OK.”
While we are known for our work on high-stakes securities and corporate law, we are also committed to helping clients quickly and efficiently resolve straightforward cases. To that end, our clients appreciate our flexibility and willingness to work with them in considering alternative fee arrangements, which have often resulted in substantial client cost savings without sacrificing top-tier representation. For the more complex and higher-dollar matters, we enjoy longstanding relationships and serve as panel counsel with major directors and officers insurance liability carriers, which allows us to help our clients maximize coverage and navigate other challenging coverage issues.
