Securities and Shareholder Claims


Securities and shareholder litigation demands a balanced understanding of both company law and the commercial realities driving disputes among stakeholders.

At Seladore, our team has handled a wide range of matters, from joint venture breakups spanning multiple jurisdictions to contentious situations where minority shareholders use “greenmailing” tactics to disrupt management. We have also acted for minority shareholders seeking to protect their interests against dominant investors, relying on statutory protections and other legal tools to ensure fair treatment and a level playing field.

We regularly advise companies, boards, committees, and financial advisors on litigation arising from mergers, tender offers, and other control transactions. Our role can extend from proactively identifying potential conflicts or unfair practices to representing parties in high-stakes shareholder class actions.

By integrating strategic planning with a deep knowledge of corporate structures and disclosure requirements, we guide clients through disputes that carry significant financial, operational, and reputational repercussions.
