BLB&G Partner Mark Lebovitch participated
at the PLI program
entitled, “What All Business Lawyers Must Know About Delaware Law Developments 2008,”
which was held on May 21, 2008 in PLI’s New York Center.
This is an annual program which focuses on the most recent and important Delaware
corporate law developments, their impact on business practices and legal
implications.
Joining other experts, including those from the judiciary, leading law firms and corporations,
institutional investors and academics, Mr. Lebovitch drew from his experience as an
attorney specializing in corporate transaction litigation to discuss the latest case law and
trends, share his real-world experience, and provide insights and practical advice on the issues
of great concern to the corporate/securities legal community.
Mr. Lebovitch is one of the partners primarily responsible for the Firm's corporate transaction
litigation practice. In that role, he has helped to obtain for shareholders billions of dollars in
additional consideration and significant corporate governance improvements by asserting breach of
fiduciary duty claims arising from, among other things, the hostile takeover battles over
Caremark Rx,
Inc. and CBOT Holdings, Inc.,
the private equity buyout of Ceridian Corporation, the acquisition of
Commerce Bancorp., and the going private proposal for
Cablevision Systems Corporation.
Mr. Lebovitch is a member of the Firm's subprime litigation team, which focuses on vindicating shareholder
and consumer rights arising from the mortgage and mortgage-based security debt crisis, and is also a
