Ben Crump is branching out.
The Tallahassee-based national civil-rights attorney Tuesday announced his partnership with New York’s Rosen Law Firm “to help institutional investors that have fallen victim to securities fraud and corporate misconduct,” a press release said.
“We are excited to join forces with Larry Rosen and one of the country’s leading securities law firms to expand the services we provide to our clients, and fight for justice for those who have been defrauded,” Crump said. “This partnership will serve the needs of state and local governments and their pension funds that have been taken advantage of by dishonest corporations.”
In this new venture, “Crump and Rosen will work on behalf of institutional investors – including public pension funds, labor unions, and others – by actively monitoring investors’ portfolio holdings at no cost and pursuing litigation, when appropriate, against entities committing securities fraud or taking part in corporate malfeasance,” explained Jenna Box Sarkissian, Crump’s spokeswoman.
Here’s how: The Rosen Law Firm employs a “proprietary suite of monitoring tools to track clients’ portfolios to ensure that companies in which they hold positions are operating within the law. If misconduct is found, it is brought to the client’s attention, and when necessary, a suit is brought to recover losses.”
“We’re thrilled to partner with Ben Crump, who has an unparalleled track record of fighting for people taken advantage of by those in power,” Larry Rosen said. “Together, we will continue that fight, and protect institutional investors that have been harmed by fraud or wrongdoing.”
