Securities and Corporate Disputes

KZR&P works with banks, financial institutions and hedge funds in dealing with a broad range of complex problems and disputes which can arise in the course of the business of any financial institution operating in multiple jurisdictions and in a range of financial services sectors.

Our team regularly advises financial institutions providing commercially focused advice with a sensitive outlook to reputational risk.

In particular we offer:

  • advice to defendants in response to derivative claims that directors or officers have breached their fiduciary duties of care and loyalty, or are engaged in other alleged misconduct;
  • advice on and  representation in litigation involving tender offers, mergers, acquisitions, and proxy contests; and
  • advice to boards of directors, audit and special board committees, and senior management about complex interrelated disclosure, accounting, and compliance issues.
