Proxy Solicitations, Shareholder Meetings, and Shareholder Proposals

Proxy Solicitations, Shareholder Meetings, and Shareholder Proposals

The public company lawyers at Hogan Lovells handle all aspects of aspects of proxy solicitations, shareholder meetings, and shareholder proposals. We advise on how to communicate, respond, and handle the issues that arise ― on everything from shareholder proposals to contested elections.

We understand the SEC rules and regulations. Our team includes former high-level SEC officials, including the former head of the Office of Mergers and Acquisitions.

We guide you through the myriad of SEC rules and regulations, proxy advisory firm guidance, the board’s fiduciary obligations, and the corporate law aspects of the meeting itself.

We can help you see beyond the meeting and anticipate what’s best for you now and down the road.
