Our Practice

Securities Litigation


Sidley is a leader in securities litigation and related work. We regularly represent companies, officers and directors, Audit Committees, broker-dealers, investment banks, outside professionals and others in all aspects of securities and corporate litigation and investigations.

According to Securities Law 360, we are one of the top five firms handling private securities litigation. We have been involved in many of the nation's largest securities cases, and we are one of the few firms that have taken a multi-billion dollar securities class action to trial. We regularly represent broker-dealers, investment banks and outside professionals in both civil litigation and proceedings before state and federal regulators and self-regulatory organizations. We understand the types of companion cases that are now routinely filed with federal securities cases, including those filed under state securities laws, antitrust laws and ERISA, as well as derivative lawsuits, bankruptcy-related litigation and lawsuits alleging professional malpractice and breach of fiduciary duty. We also work regularly with international clients facing securities issues in the United States.

More than 80 lawyers in our Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. offices focus their practices on securities litigation.
