I focus my practice on complex commercial litigation and regulatory matters for financial services industry clients, including hedge funds, funds of funds, private equity funds, prime and clearing brokers, auditors and administrators. I have substantial experience in both securities regulatory matters and private litigation, including investigations by the SEC, U.S. Attorneys’ Offices, the DOJ, the CFTC, the FTC, state attorneys general, state securities regulators and self-regulatory organizations.Over the course of a career spanning almost 30 years, I have litigated numerous cases in federal and state courts, including several jury trials, as well as in a variety of arbitral forums throughout the United States. I represent clients in investigations and litigations involving allegations of insider trading, market manipulation, market timing and late trading, misconduct involving PIPEs, short-swing profits, securities and common law fraud, advertising, breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract, employment disputes, fraudulent transfer and other bankruptcy matters among other claims. To prevent minor issues from growing into bigger problems, I provide litigation and compliance counseling as well as conduct internal investigations.
