The Perfect Storm: Handling Concurrent Governmental Investigations, Internal Investigations and Private Securities Litigation

Companies often have unexpected events or occurrences that lead to simultaneous governmental investigations by the SEC, DOJ, State AGs, Congress, and others along with related shareholder derivative and class action litigation. Whether triggered by a whistleblower, regulatory inquiry, bad press, or company disclosure of an issue, the stakes are high and managing the response is critical. All companies are at potential risk and could be faced with an onslaught of proceedings.

The webinar addresses best practices on how to coordinate the responses to parallel investigations and litigation, including strategic considerations and crisis management.
