About Richard H. Zelichov
A sudden drop in stock prices — and the disappointment of stockholders that follows — can pose a danger to a company and its directors and officers, especially in the technology and life sciences industries. But accusations of deliberately misleading stockholders are frequently asserted too quickly and without any basis. Richard Zelichov helps clients in exactly this situation, digging deep to tell their story to the courts, government regulators and investors so cases can be dismissed, and his clients can get back to business.
Digging deep to tell his client's story
Clients turn to Richard for a wide range of commercial litigation matters. He has particular experience representing public companies and their directors and officers in securities class-action and derivative litigation in both federal and state courts throughout the United States. He also helps with matters before the SEC and with internal investigations.
"Richard's work is top-notch and timely. He's also excellent at explaining strategic choices available to the client." "Richard is one of the most talented lawyers available for securities. His dedication to the client is unmatched."
