pThe law firm of Brodsky amp; Odeh, the legal practice behind several of Chicago's biggest cases, is splitting up, partners Reem Odeh and Joel A. Brodsky jointly announced today. /ppWe have grown in different directions and our expertise is now in very different areas of law, says Brodsky. After some soul searching and discussion it became obvious to both of us that it simply makes more sense to be in separate law firms. /ppOdeh, who teamed with Brodsky six years ago, says she is looking forward to forging ahead with developing her own practice./ppI learned a lot from practicing criminal law with Joel over the last six years, and now it is time for me to develop my own identity as an attorney, says Odeh./ppBrodsky and Odeh are probably best known for their representation of former Bolingbrook police officer Drew Peterson. /ppReem says that despite the breakup of the firm, she will remain a part of Peterson's defense team.

Robbins Umeda LLP Announces an Investigation of the Acquisition of McAfee, Inc.
Firm News/California |

pRobbins Umeda LLP has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by members of the Board of Directors (Board) of McAfee, Inc. (McAfee or the Company) (NYSE: MFE) in connection with their efforts to sell McAfee to Intel Corporation (Intel) (NASDAQ: INTC). If the transaction is completed, McAfee shareholders will receive $48.00 in cash for each share of McAfee common stock they hold. /ppRobbins Umeda LLP's investigation concerns whether the McAfee Board undertook a fair process to obtain fair consideration for all shareholders of McAfee. Specifically, our investigation concerns whether the Company's Board breached their fiduciary duties to McAfee shareholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into the transaction with Intel. At least one analyst had a price target for the Company at $50 per share. Additionally, under the terms of the agreement, McAfee must pay Intel a $230 million termination fee if McAfee accepts a superior offer to the Intel offer. /ppIf you are a shareholder of McAfee, plan to continue to hold your shares, and would like more information about your rights as a shareholder, please contact attorney Gregory E. Del Gaizo at 800-350-6003 or by e-mail at a href=mailto:info@robbinsumeda.cominfo@robbinsumeda.com/a. /ppRobbins Umeda LLP is a California-based law firm with significant experience representing investors in merger-related shareholder class actions, shareholder derivative actions, and securities fraud class actions.

Law Firm Advertising to Represent Mine Disaster Families

pWith tragedy comes an outpouring of support but an area law firm's way of helping is raising some eyebrows. /ppUnderwood Law Firm wasted no time putting ads in local newspapers a week after the deadly blast killed 29 miners at Massey's Upper Big Branch Mine in Raleigh County./ppAttorney Mark Underwood says he stands by his decision; especially because he says benefit packages are often difficult to understand. /ppI think it was perfect timing in light of the fact that Massey came out with a benefits package the very next day, Underwood said. /ppUnderwood said his grandfather was killed in an industrial accident years ago. His family understands what happens following the funeral with emotions running high, and the daunting task of legal paperwork./ppThe family members that would be considering those benefit packages need to seek some sort of legal counsel whether it's our firm, another firm, a friend or a neighbor that's a lawyer, Underwood said. They need to go and sit down and talk to a lawyer before they agree to anything with Massey./ppBut how soon, is too soon? It's a question many people started asking as ads popped up before all the funerals had even been finished./p |
