Corporate Governance

Our team is comprised of lawyers with extensive experience in a wide range of areas concerning corporate governance matters, including corporate law, securities regulation, directors’ and officers’ liability and fiduciary duty, and corporate litigation issues through our outside contacts.

We provide effective and structured advice to our clients on the requirements of corporate governance regulations and best practices and on the implementation of compliance programs on an ongoing basis. We also assist public companies to comply with applicable regulatory reporting and disclosure requirements and restrictions and provide strategic advice in making sense out of what would seem like a myriad of red tapes and bureaucracy. We have served as special counsel to boards of directors and special committees. We also assist clients with internal regulatory investigations and proceedings to ensure continuing compliance with applicable laws.

• Directors’ duties and responsibilities
• Corporate governance policies, including board mandates and committee charters
• Board and committee composition and function
• Shareholder, board and board committee meetings
• Special committee and independent director committee formation and advice, including in the context of take-over bids and restructuring transactions related party transactions
