Shareholder Derivative Claims in Waco

Dunnam & Dunnam tackles high-stakes derivative litigation involving breach of fiduciary duty claims. The firm works on both sides of the docket and provides clients with unparalleled advice and strategy to be positioned for successful outcomes. Litigation arises from complaints about related-party transactions, corporate waste, unfair mergers, executive compensation, corporate governance, insider trading, accounting fraud, securities law violations, minority shareholder oppression, and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Derivative lawsuits force company executives to maximize shareholder value and serve a critical role in preventing damaging acts of fiduciary wrongdoing from occurring at the company in the future. It is often necessary for shareholders to bring a derivative action against officers and directors when the company does not take proper action against them for their wrongdoing. We monitor the market news, trends, strategies, and movements while preparing and trying cases. Our breach of fiduciary duty attorneys are not caught off-guard by recent developments that might impact our cases.
