At Securities Enforcement Forum D.C. 2024 (set for November 6, 2024), Securities Docket will announce its “Enforcement Elite” for 2024 – our list of the best securities enforcement defense counsel in the industry. Specifically, this list honors professionals who not only have the right stuff to handle bet-the-company matters, but are also the kind of defensive specialists critical to have on speed-dial should the SEC’s Division of Enforcement come calling.
Securities Docket created its inaugural list in 2013, and updated it in 2017 and 2020 (see the 2020 honorees below). The list is guided by a simple question: Who would you hire if you, your company or a family member was faced with an important SEC enforcement matter?
In addition, there are three basic requirements:
- Candidates for the Enforcement Elite must be in the private sector for at least the past two years.
- Candidates for the Enforcement Elite must have a practice that is at last 50% dedicated to SEC enforcement defense work.
- Candidates for the Enforcement Elite must be attorneys (as opposed to accountants, economists or other experts)
If you would like to nominate someone for the Enforcement Elite for 2024, please let us know in 200 words or less why your nominee should be included in this extraordinary group. Please email your nomination to info@securitiesdocket.com with the Subject line “Enforcement Elite”.
The deadline for submissions is Friday, October 11, 2024 and we will announce the Enforcement Elite honorees at Securities Enforcement Forum D.C. 2024, which will be held Wednesday, November 6, 2024, at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C..
Thanks for your nominations!
