Corporate Litigation
As the “corporate capital” of the world, Delaware historically has been, and continues to be, the primary forum for litigation of major corporate disputes. Litigating corporate and fiduciary actions is the firm’s primary practice area. While we are well known for our representation of stockholders and investors, our Corporate Litigation group also regularly represents officers, directors and corporations in the Delaware Court of Chancery, other Delaware courts, and in Federal court. Our corporate litigation attorneys represent clients in lawsuits involving mergers and acquisitions, tender offers, control contests, appraisal proceedings, and similar disputes. We are experienced in prosecuting and defending summary proceedings involving director and officer indemnification and advancement, inspection of books and records, election contests, and corporate dissolution proceedings.
