Josh Dubofsky > Latham & Watkins LLP > Silicon Valley, United States > Lawyer Profile

Latham & Watkins LLP‘s offering to boards on shareholder activism continues to impress, and was strengthened further in March 2023 with the hire of Ian Nussbaum to its New York office from Cooley LLP. He joined a practice that has extensive experience supporting public companies at every stage of activism planning, proxy contest defense, and activism campaigns. The team is well versed in facing the major activist funds in the US and pools knowledge from its experts in insurance counseling, public company representation, litigation, ESG, and M&A. Chris Drewry (Chicago) is, along with Nussbaum, praised for showing ‘incredible judgment‘; he co-leads the department with Josh Dubofsky (Silicon Valley and New York), whose broad transactional practice includes substantial corporate governance and shareholder activism counsel. Tiffany Campion (Chicago) is a key contact for takeover defense work, leading that sub-group, and Michele Anderson (Washington, DC) is an expert on SEC regulation.
