Shareholder Litigation 

Our Knowledge, Your Business

If you require any kind of shareholder litigation advice, Irwin Mitchell can assist your in-house counsel in protecting your investments by monitoring and tracking corporate misconduct and frauds in the UK, Europe and beyond. We will advise you on the most appropriate way forward in terms of balancing your short-term and long-term needs.

Experts In Shareholder Litigation

Stories of corporate misconduct continue to appear almost daily in the financial press. Frauds at companies including Enron, Vivendi, WorldCom, Global Crossing and Tyco are just some of the most well-known recent examples.

Shareholders, pension funds and investment managers often own or manage significant stakes in UK, EU and foreign companies (including US corporates) and are affected by corporate misconduct occurring in the UK and abroad.

We have a diverse team experienced in handling group actions or derivative proceeding claims by investors – plus we have a reputation for being relentless in the pursuit of appropriate remedies when taking actions against management. Our investor protection team works closely with comprehensive expertise and support from across the Irwin Mitchell group, including our international commerce experts and investment specialists.

Irwin Mitchell can provide a weekly updating service tracking the many securities claims brought there. We can also provide advice on bringing a US claim either from inception, or when claiming money from a class action settlement that has already been secured.  For EU investors, we can provide help for minority shareholders looking to protect their investment, offering advice on bringing actions in other jurisdictions.
