Chambers Review
Sullivan & Cromwell LLP is considered a go-to for major financial institutions involved in bet-the-company securities law disputes, and achieves particular success in matters with cross-border elements. The firm is recognized for its work on major cases coming out of the financial crisis, and draws praise for its representation of banks as underwriters in stock offerings. It acts on precedent-setting matters for both issuers and banks, with a number of victories for leading corporate issuers in event-driven class actions. Noted for the global reach of its practice, often representing non-US clients in multijurisdictional matters.
New York-based Jeffrey Scott and Julia Malkina co-lead the securities litigation practice.
