Seward & Kissel LLP

Drawing upon strong institutional financial services knowledge, as well as being able to leverage the expertise of many lawyers with significant prior governmental regulatory experience, the New York-focused team at Seward & Kissel LLP provides ‘smart, strategic and responsive’ advice to public companies, banks, and investment managers subject to regulatory scrutiny and in the context of private securities litigation. Jack Yoskowitz is a key member of the team, both on securities regulatory matters and private litigation, as well as in relation to shareholder derivative actions in the Delaware Chancery Court. Philip Moustakis has significant regulatory insight having previously served as senior counsel at the SECs enforcement division (including within its asset management division), and is consequently well-positioned to represent funds, in particular, with regard to securities-related investigations/enforcements. Russell Johnston, who previously worked as senior counsel at FINRA’s enforcement department, co-heads the team alongside Bruce Paulsen.
