Directors and Officers

Increased corporate governance means more exposure for directors and officers. Executive liability exposures are becoming more complex, often involving investigations and litigation in multiple jurisdictions. Emerging risks such as data protection and supply chain management can significantly impact businesses.

Sheeley’s attorneys defend directors and officers in claims that arise from actions taken in the scope of their regular job duties. We defend many types of D&O cases, including:

  • Failure to comply with regulations
  • Negligence
  • Maladministration/lack of controls
  • Breach of trust/fiduciary duty
  • Inadequate/inaccurate disclosure

Sheeley takes pride in protecting the interests of our clients in this increasingly complicated area of the law.
