Reversing Clawback into 489% Equity Gain
In the third quarter of 2025, the firm intervened on behalf of a founding executive facing pre-textual termination and forfeiture of his equity on the eve of his company’s $10M merger. With $233K in vested equity on the line, we immediately held the company to task challenging their reading of the relevant equity agreements and vesting language. After a 72-hour blitz, the company awarded the client his full equity stake, a $1.14M cash payout. Total execution time: 7 days.

Severance Increase
An executive received an opening severance of approximately $43,000 framed around a single jurisdiction. The matter was reframed around the employer's broader exposure — overlapping U.S. and Italian employment considerations, timing, release value, and the true cost of an unclean separation. The dispute resolved at roughly $141,000, more than three times the initial number, without filing suit.
