Securities Fraud Litigation

The attorneys at Charles Lilley & Associates P.C. have extensive experience in both securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation, in particular, securities fraud claims. Our attorneys have been involved as lead, liaison, and co-counsel in many such lawsuits in federal and state courts. For a list of major cases, click here. Claims in these kinds of case are founded in the federal securities laws and regulations, including the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 ("PSLRA") and state securities laws. Working in these complex litigation cases, often with highly respected co-counsel nationwide, our attorneys have recouped tens of millions of dollars for investors who purchased stock at prices artificially inflated by the defendants' material misstatements or omissions.

Our attorneys have years of experience litigating shareholder derivative actions, where shareholders bring actions on behalf of the corporation against persons, including officers, directors, employees, and/or agents, whose actions have harmed the corporation. In a typical case, shareholders might claim that a company’s officers and directors breached their fiduciary duties to the company or its shareholders by engaging in "self-dealing," or arranging a corporation's affairs in ways that benefit only selected officers or directors to the detriment of the best interests of the corporation.

If you believe a company has made material mis-representations, failed to disclose material information, or has released highly “puffed up” information on its finances, opportunities, earnings, operations, pending deals, or prospects, please contact us to discuss your concerns. We are also interested in talking to you if you feel the company’s management has engaged in conduct detrimental to the company’s interests. For your information, law firms often will take these cases on under special contingency fee agreements, which call for the firm to receive a court-approved fee if the case is successful in settlement or in trial.

If you own or have owned securities in a company whose officers and/or directors have or may have acted improperly, you may be eligible to become an investor representative or class member that seeks relief on behalf of all the shareholders. Or if you know of or suspect any practices that are or may be in violation of the securities laws or lead you to question if a Board or officers is fulfilling their fiduciary duties to a company’s shareholders, occurring now or at some time in the past, please call us at 303-293-9800 or email us to discuss your concerns.
