Dechert LLP‘s trial, investigations and securities practice has a large group of experienced partners across the US, whose work encompasses securities class actions, shareholder derivative suits, mutual fund litigation, broker-dealer disputes, internal investigations and regulatory proceedings. Joni Jacobsen leads the practice and works out of both the Chicago and New York offices, as does key partner David Kistenbroker. Their work together includes acting for Exelon Corporation to negotiate a $40m settlement in a case alleging bribery, breach of fiduciary duty, and other misconduct.
