We advise corporations and their officers and directors about governance issues, regulatory compliance and related matters, including current applications and interpretations of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Our attorneys regularly provide guidance with respect to fiduciary responsibility of directors and officers, disclosure issues, financial reporting, management succession and compensation, board composition and structure, conflict of interest and change of control matters, stockholder rights plans, and NYSE and NASDAQ corporate governance requirements.  Further, in light of the trend of private companies adopting more stringent standards of corporate governance similar to those now employed by public companies, our attorneys provide governance advice to privately-owned firms and nonprofit organizations as well.
