In a world of increased regulation and shareholder activism, directors and boards face increasing scrutiny of their actions both on a regular basis and in settings where heightened duties are imposed on directors and boards.
Our business litigators, often with the input of our corporate attorneys, advise and represent corporate clients and investors regarding various governance issues involving corporations, limited liability corporations, and partnerships. We have in-depth experience addressing client concerns ranging from board control issues, to duties that arise in the sale of a company or a “going private” transaction, to responding to shareholder requests or demands, including books and records demands, to advice regarding stock option disputes, and to self-dealing by board members.
