Led by William Prickett, Seyfarth Shaw LLP‘s growing New York-based practice regularly defends corporates, directors and officers, and financial services entities facing private class actions and regulatory enforcement actions, as well as in derivative shareholder litigation. Vincent Sama, a securities-focused litigator, has deep experience handling state and federal cases in courts throughout the country, and is equally as comfortable handling private litigation aspects as regulatory investigations. Senior counsel Gregory Markel has excellent relationships with D&O insurers. Markel's considerable securities law knowledge translates to work on class actions, involvement on corporate governance/fiduciary duty-related mandates, and from time to time his involvement as an expert witness in securities litigation.
