Johnson Van Kwawegen LLP was founded on the conviction that institutional investors deserve a different kind of shareholder firm: client-centered, value driven, trial-ready, unafraid to give clear advice and take on the hardest cases. A firm that works together to create and add value while protecting the rule of law.
Johnson van Kwawegen is the only shareholder firm that combines an unyielding determination to put the interests of clients first with fearless, precedent-shaping trial work informed by deep governance insight. We are trial lawyers who understand our clients’ needs and who will devote our unmatched expertise to stand up for investors, create value, and hold corporations and corporate insiders accountable – inside and outside the courtroom.
We are a firm that actively strengthens the rule of law, advances accountability, and enforces the corporate governance and securities laws that all institutional investors depend on. Wherever we are and whatever we do, we provide clear, practical, and strategic advice in high-stakes and fast-moving situations, whether addressing misrepresentations to investors or a corporate governance breakdown. This enables our clients to protect their interests and the interests of their beneficiaries.
An ownership-driven culture defines the firm, where seasoned trial lawyers and governance thought leaders collaborate with next-generation talent to shape corporate governance and capital markets outcomes for institutional investors. This positive, mutually reinforcing environment—rare in the shareholder bar—consistently drives success across complex disputes. The team’s record includes taking cases through trial to improve the system, not merely settling them, earning the respect of clients, judges, mediators, and opposing counsel. The result: meaningful outcomes that protect and advance investor interests.
Johnson Van Kwawegen is based in New York, Delaware, and California, at the heart of the U.S. economic and corporate governance ecosystem. The firm is strategically positioned to create value and protect the interests of all institutional investors with exposure to U.S. capital markets.
