Jim has more than 30 years of experience representing public companies, banks, mortgage lenders, insurance companies, investment banks, and broker-dealers facing high-stakes litigation in federal court, state court, and before financial regulators.

Jim helps financial services clients resolve complex disputes with shareholders, regulators, and competitors through creative, cost-effective litigation strategies – and when necessary, by taking cases to trial and winning.

A Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, Jim brings extensive first-chair trial experience in federal and state courts, arbitration forums, including Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), American Arbitration Association (AAA), and the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) – and before regulatory agencies, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Jim serves as Co-Chair of the Class Action Practice Group. His practice focuses on all aspects of financial services litigation, including class actions, shareholder derivative actions, mortgage-backed securities (MBS) litigation, securities arbitrations (customer and intra-industry matters), tender offer defense, and regulatory investigations and enforcement actions.
