The Firm represented and funded a number of institutional investors in a direct action in Paris, France, against Vivendi Universal S.A. and Jean-Marie Messier, Vivendi's former CEO, arising from the same underlying facts at issue in the U.S. securities class action In re Vivendi Universal Securities Litigation (S.D.N.Y.). The Firm represented investors who purchased Vivendi securities on the Paris Bourse and whose claims were excluded from the U.S. litigation following the Supreme Court's 2010 decision in Morrison v. National Australia Bank. After more than twenty years of proceedings before American and French courts, the Firm, together with its French counsel, successfully settled the matter pending before the International Chamber of the Paris Court of Appeal in July 2024.
