Remaining at the summit of the shareholder activism field, Olshan Frome Wolosky LLP‘s New York-based dedicated practice leads some of the largest and most innovative campaigns for the most prominent activist funds, helping to strengthen board accountability and increase trust in corporate governance across a wide array of industries and drives trends in the wider activist field. The practice’s attorneys combine a range of approaches in order to advise shareholders, covering activist, governance-related, and company negotiations during campaigns. The department is led by Andrew Freedman, a preeminent figure in the shareholder activism field who is experienced in working with both the largest activist funds and smaller, newly-launched activist investment funds in high-stakes, cross-border proxy contests, achieving many precedent-setting victories, and Ryan Nebel, who focuses on shareholder engagement as well as withhold campaigns, consent solicitations and settlement negotiations in the context of corporate transactions. The group can also mobilize the talents of the highly experienced Chair emeritus Steve Wolosky, a proxy contest and hostile takeover specialist, and other leading partners are Meagan Reda, Kenneth Mantel, and Rebecca Van Derlaske.
