We advise public issuers and private companies on a wide range of matters related to effective business and committee structuring, accountability matters, governance procedures, board management and other corporate governance matters. We understand and are sensitive to competing interests, and routinely provide advice on time-sensitive, controversial or risk-laden matters. We also advise individual directors and officers, and security holders of public and private businesses, on the enforcement of their rights. We work with our clients on such matters as:
- board and committee mandates and assessments
- regulatory compliance requirements and best practices
- director and officer indemnification practices
- proxy contests
- special committees of public issuers in respect of mergers and acquisitions
- fiduciary duties
- shareholder relations and dispute resolution
