Our NY commercial litigators have led some of the most important victories for the firm that have also generated historic changes and press.

Our NY securities litigation practice is built to field teams of broadly experienced litigators who are both advocates with established trial acumen and counsellors/strategists, viewing their task as part of a collective solution to a client’s business problem. Accordingly, our experienced securities litigators see the entire field, taking a case-customized interdisciplinary approach to complex securities litigation. We collaborate seamlessly with other Winston attorneys across all legal disciplines and industries, leveraging the strengths of our robust litigation, corporate, and transactional practices. Our NY securities litigators represent public companies in high-end engagements in parallel/“piggyback” civil proceedings following governmental investigations, qui tam lawsuits, and other “corporate trauma” in heavily regulated sectors, and we are uniquely positioned in high-stakes M&A and corporate governance litigation in Delaware.
