Complex Commercial and Fraud Litigation

We devote a significant portion of our practice to litigation on behalf
of both institutional plaintiffs and defendants in the federal and state
courts and before arbitration panels. Gage Spencer & Fleming
believes successful representation in such complicated cases requires
thorough familiarity and experience in a number of key areas. We
understand the intricacies of securities, merger and acquisition,
antitrust, media and intellectual property, and corporate employment
matters. Representative plaintiffs have included:
- A Fortune 500 multinational media company, in both the
prosecution and defense of multiple actions brought over a span of more
than a decade for claims involving fraud, breach of contract,
preliminary agreements to agree, breach of fiduciary duty, and alter ego
claims, among many others.
-
One of the world's 10 largest hedge funds, in a sizable commercial
dispute with a major bank over the liquidation of trading positions.
- A leading consumer products company, in the prosecution of a
competitor for tortious interference with contract and business
relations.
- A national sports league, in multiple disputes over the years,
primarily focused on claims involving licensing and contract issues.
- A multinational beverage company, in connection with claims of
racketeering, fraud, and breach of fiduciary duty arising from various
investments.
- A major financial services and communications corporation, in an
action arising from the theft of corporate information relating to a
tender offer.
- A bankruptcy court-approved liquidating trust, formed out of the
failure of a renowned insurance holding company, in an action against a
Big Four accounting firm for audit and actuarial fraud.
- An executrix of a major artist's estate, in an action for RICO, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty and related claims proceedings.
