Service
Known for credibility, tenacity, and time-sensitive practical advice, Pillsbury’s Securities Litigation & Enforcement team represents companies, boards of directors, and officers in shareholder litigation, regulatory and internal investigations, and enforcement proceedings.
Our lawyers, who include a former senior counsel in the SEC’s Division of Enforcement, have extensive experience responding to DOJ and SEC inquiries and proceedings, and they have a strong record of convincing regulators to conclude investigations without enforcement action.
Our team also has a strong record of success in avoiding and resolving various forms of shareholder litigation. We advise and defend corporations, and their directors and officers, ranging from well-established Fortune 100 companies to small private and newly public entities, and ranging across industries including financial services, life sciences, energy and technology. We provide guidance on disclosure issues and conduct internal investigations for audit and special committees, covering the gamut from regulator-prompted probes examining pre-IPO share sales on the secondary market to inquiries raised by whistleblowers emboldened by the Dodd-Frank Act. We work closely with our corporate and transactional lawyers, forensic accountants and other experts to achieve optimal results in a cost-effective manner.
