DGS represents clients in a wide range of litigation involving alleged violations of state and federal securities laws and state fiduciary duty laws, including class actions, shareholder derivative actions and Securities and Exchange Commission enforcement actions. This type of litigation often arises in the context of accounting restatements, insider trading, failed or completed corporate acquisitions, internal corporate investigations, related party transactions, NASD or stock exchange inquiries or other allegations of nondisclosure or corporate waste. We also represent clients in connection with claims by customers against registered broker-dealers for unsuitable or unauthorized trading, usually in securities arbitrations before the NASD. We have been involved in securities litigation for clients in Colorado and across the United States, often defending cases brought by the leading plaintiffs' securities law firms in the country.
Clients include public and private corporations, their officers and directors, underwriters, broker-dealers and registered representatives, investment companies and investment advisors, individual investors, venture capital firms, accounting firms, banks and other financial institutions. We also offer a long-established appellate litigation practice. Representative clients come from the telecommunications, real estate, financial, energy, mutual funds and technology industries.
