Securities Litigation

Our Securities Litigation Practice Group is comprised of lawyers with significant experience representing public companies, their officers, directors and other affiliates, who are the subject of securities-related litigation.  Our lawyers have substantial experience defending individual, class and derivative actions.  We have handled issuer fraud cases, corporate take-over contests, proxy fights and valuation cases, among others.  We have represented clients in federal and state courts across the United States and have great familiarity with the corporate governance laws of the State of Delaware, where many of these actions are filed.

We also have extensive experience concerning the insurance issues that typically arise in securities litigation.  Our experience in this area includes conducting risk assessments, analyzing and litigating coverage cases, and assessing and litigating excess liability or bad faith issues.
