Corporate and Securities Litigation

Although we are the dominant defense firm for securities matters filed in the Southeast and the Southwest (handling more securities class actions in the 5th and 11th Circuits than any other firm), we have a national practice with more than 40 dedicated securities practitioners in offices in New York, Washington, D.C., Georgia, Texas and California. Our seasoned litigators have acted on behalf of Global 100 clients as lead defense counsel in hundreds of securities class actions, derivative lawsuits, and SEC investigations and enforcement actions in courts nationwide. In class actions alleging securities fraud, we have won scores of cases for clients on motions to dismiss, class certification, summary judgment and at trial.

Notably, our pretrial dismissal rate exceeds the national average in an environment where dismissals continue to play an important role. Our track record of success is why we are panel counsel for, and are regularly recommended by, major D&O insurance carriers and brokers.
