We believe that a combination of experience and fresh thinking sets the stage for favorable results.

Overview

Our firm has a long tradition of litigating securities fraud and other securities claims, and our lawyers have played a significant role in shaping securities law in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.  Our experience spans from national multi-district class actions to customer arbitrations.

We have represented clients in matters involving securities fraud suits, derivative claims, class actions, shareholder and proxy litigation, breach of fiduciary duty claims, and merger and acquisitions disputes.  In addition, our lawyers have successfully defended broker-dealers and their representatives in FINRA arbitrations.  Our experience encompasses a broad range of multi-district and class action litigation.

Notable Experience

  • We were co-counsel in defending a regional brokerage firm against claims by investors in the Middle District of Louisiana for losses of over $350 million arising out of the sale of mortgage backed securities. The myriad of complex claims were ultimately resolved to our client’s satisfaction.
  • We were co-counsel in defending an online mobile food delivery service, and some of its former officers and directors, with respect to a suit filed in the Western District of Louisiana under the federal securities laws, including Sections 10(b) and 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  The defense team was successful in having the 99-page amended complaint dismissed without leave to amend through a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure

We are known for these strengths

  • Broad knowledge of securities laws and regulations.
  • Common sense attitude.
  • Ability to prepare documents efficiently.
  • Efficient resolution of issues.
