Our professional network is extensive. We work with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and state securities administrators. Our clients include securities issuers, underwriters, selling agents and investors.
We help clients prepare proxy materials and periodic reports required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as 8-Ks, 10-Ks and 10-Qs.

Many of our clients are securities firms. We assist them in a variety of corporate reporting, securities underwriting and placement, brokering and dealing, and litigation matters. We also represent investment advisors, including investment advisors to mutual funds, as well as financial institutions involved in securities activities.
