The securities litigation and SEC enforcement practice at Jones Day is ‘extremely knowledgeable'. From offices across the US, the firm defends clients in securities and shareholder litigation, and in SEC enforcement matters. Henry Klehm in New York leads the group, and he is involved in a high-profile 10b5 case for the former CEO of mining company Rio Tinto. ’Phenomenal attorney and litigator‘ John Tang in San Francisco comes highly recommended. He recently worked with Mike McConnell in Atlanta to assist former members of the Audit Committee of View, Inc. with a securities class action. Walter Davis is another key contact in Atlanta, and he brings to hear his three years’ experience as the first judge of Georgia’s state-wide Business Court. Cleveland-based Geoffrey Ritts, whose track record includes numerous cases concerning mortgage-backed securities and a multi-district litigation arising from the Bernie Madoff scandal, continues to play a prominent role in high-stakes cases.
