We represent consumers who have lost money or otherwise been harmed by unfair, deceptive and misleading business practices. These claims include excessive or unfair charges and breaches of contract. Consumer fraud cases are often brought as class actions because it can be difficult to economically handle cases on an individual basis.
If you purchased shares of a publicly traded company trusting that the marketplace had properly valued the stock based on the complete mix of information available, and it later turns out that the price you paid for your stock was inflated because the company was dishonest about important adverse information, or hid such information, and the price of the company’s stock goes down significantly, you may be a member of a defrauded class of shareholders.
We investigate and prosecute shareholder derivative suits in state and federal courts when corporate boards breach their fiduciary duties owed to the company. When the value of a company is diminished because of willful mismanagement, insider self-dealing or other acts of malfeasance, shareholders may bring a derivative suit against the board of directors and other responsible individuals in order to improve corporate governance and to recoup damages suffered by the company.
