Securities

During periods of economic turmoil, corporations and senior executives are particularly attractive targets for government regulators and private securities plaintiffs. In times like these, experienced legal counsel is invaluable and substantial trial experience is a must. At Keker, Van Nest & Peters, we bring our trial skills to every setting in which securities problems arise, from investigations by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Justice, to class actions and shareholder derivative suits. 

Our expertise covers virtually every aspect of securities law enforcement, including revenue recognition, market timing or late trading, and the recent spate of options backdating investigations . We have handled scores of matters involving traditional areas of securities law enforcement, such as allegations of insider trading, accounting and disclosure fraud, and misbehavior by brokers and other securities professionals.
