Ice Miller attorneys have substantial experience in complex private securities litigation, derivative litigation, corporate governance disputes and defense of state and federal securities regulatory and criminal enforcement actions.
We have represented public companies, private partnerships, institutional investors, directors and officers, broker dealers and individuals. We have litigated in private shareholder class actions, shareholder derivative cases, government enforcement matters, receiverships arising from investment fraud, internal investigations, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) arbitrations and enforcement actions, and other disputes relating to securities transactions and corporate governance.
In their private and public practice capacities, our attorneys have served in leadership roles in some of the largest securities litigation matters in recent history. We have litigated three of the largest securities class actions under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act (PSLRA), two of the largest non-public securities frauds in the Midwest, and one of the largest defendant class actions in the nation. Collectively, our cases have involved claims and settlements in the billions of dollars.
Our team includes former government attorneys with direct and specific experience relating to securities litigation, SEC enforcement and financial fraud. These include senior members of state Attorneys Generals' offices, a former SEC Division of Enforcement attorney, former federal and state prosecutors and a former Director of Enforcement of the Ohio Division of Securities.
