Corporate Governance
Legal Experience That Stands Out
In a fast-paced, 24/7 business climate where the ability to seize new opportunities, maintain productive relationships, and manage risky situations requires nimble, multi-disciplinary legal representation, our Corporate Governance Team skillfully maneuvers through the full range of corporate governance issues that businesses must navigate.
Of note, the firm has an office in Wilmington, Delaware, and regularly practices in the Delaware Chancery Court and the Delaware Supreme Court, where some of the most significant corporate governance issues are adjudicated.
