Pastore LLC represented an attorney and hedge fund manager in a disciplinary hearing related an algorithmic securities trading platform and sophisticated investment transactions. The client was accused of fraud and breach of contract, resulting in arbitration before the American Arbitration Association. Following the arbitration, the matter was brought before the State Grievance Committee in Connecticut for potential discipline, including disbarment. After lengthy proceedings, the State Grievance Committee’s reviewing committee declined to impose any discipline against Pastore’s client.

Pastore has attorneys formerly affiliated with firms such as Kelley Drye & Warren LLP, Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, and Mayer Brown, as well as the SEC and NYSE, and has a thriving securities industry practice.
