Noted for its willingness ‘to go the extra mile and try cases’, New York-based litigation boutique Selendy Gay PLLC excels in handling complex commercial disputes for both plaintiffs and defendants. On the plaintiff front, under the guidance of seasoned litigator Philippe Selendy, the team gained a reputation for its dogged pursuit of Wall Street in the aftermath of the financial crisis. Some legacy cases remain active, including for US Bank in an action seeking recovery of hundreds of millions of dollars from DLJ Mortgage Capital, Inc. (DLJ) and Ameriquest Mortgage Company for their alleged misconduct in originating and securitizing mortgage-backed securities. Most recently, the firm has been at the vanguard of crypto-related securities litigation, with Jordan Goldstein, who co-heads the overarching securities and structured finance team alongside Selendy, representing plaintiffs in a number of closely watched cases to determine whether digital assets are classified as securities and therefore subject to SEC oversight.
