For more than six decades, Kirby McInerney has specialized in the representation of investors and shareholders who have been harmed by corporate misconduct. Our achievements during this period include trial victories, the recovery of up to 100% of our clients’ losses through settlements, and successes on appeal.
We have consistently been on the vanguard of the plaintiff’s bar and utilize hard work and “out-of-the-box” thinking to successfully protect our clients’ interests against what others often perceive to be difficult odds. Our attorneys have achieved landmark victories for our clients throughout the history of the firm. Some of our major successes over the last 25 years include:
