Morrison & Foerster advises public companies and their executives, directors and affiliates regarding regulatory matters, corporate governance practices, SEC reporting and disclosure issues, enforcement matters, and securities transactions. We also represent broker-dealers and other regulated financial institutions.
Our lawyers include attorneys who have held senior positions with the SEC’s Divisions of Enforcement and Corporation Finance. During their tenures with the SEC, our attorneys were involved in the rulemaking that occurred in the wake of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and worked on groundbreaking enforcement actions, including market manipulation cases concerning public corporations’ stocks, major financial reporting and disclosure cases, and cases against auditors, broker-dealers, and investment advisers. We have an in-house forensic accounting services group, led by a Certified Public Accountant, and former Big Four auditor, which assists in identifying, interpreting, and clarifying financial and accounting matters.
