Proskauer Rose LLP‘s litigation group is ‘a delight to work with‘. The firm handles the full range of litigation and regulatory enforcement matters, including SEC investigations and shareholder class actions. Boston-based practice head Timothy Mungovan is recognized as a skill trial attorney, and he recently secured the dismissal of claims of breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting, and unjust enrichment against asset management firm Shamrock Capital Advisors. Key partner Jonathan Richman and asset management and securities litigation specialist Joshua Newville, both based in New York, stand out for their defense of a securities class action against Obra Capital arising from a write-down of the fund’s assets. The arrival of Stephen Hibbard in Los Angeles from Jones Day and Washington DC-based regulatory enforcement specialist Robert Pommer, ‘a superstar in respect of SEC matters‘ from Kirkland & Ellis LLP bolster the firm’s capacity to handle high-stakes matters.
