Our practice of representing hedge funds, private equity firms, venture funds, mutual funds, investment advisors, and fund managers in high stakes litigation is world class. We regularly represent funds, fund investors, and fund managers involved in litigation arising from activist investment strategies, distressed investment scenarios, including insolvency and restructuring, allegations of improper fund management, inadequate disclosures, alleged securities laws violations, market manipulation, and other complex financial disputes. We are one of the only global top-tier firms in the world prepared to litigate against the large prime brokers and money center banks, such as Citibank, JPMorgan Chase, UBS, Merrill Lynch, Royal Bank of Scotland, Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse, Barclays, HSBC, Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs. We also regularly represent funds and fund managers against the "Big Four" accounting firms. In addition to litigating against third parties, we have a track record of successfully resolving partnership, valuation, and redemption disputes between fund managers and individual partners. We also have extensive experience representing funds and fund managers before the SEC and FSA, as well as in other government investigations and prosecutions around the globe.
With offices in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Silicon Valley, Chicago, London, Tokyo, and Mannheim, and dozens of trial lawyers equipped with a deep understanding of complex financial products, credit agreements, derivatives, risk allocation, and the capital markets, no firm in the world can top our unique combination of litigation skill and substantive knowledge of this financial industry. And no global top-tier firm can match our achievements. In the past 3 years, for example, we have recovered more than $3 billion for funds, fund investors, and fund managers. We have also defended many funds and fund managers from claims exceeding many more billions of dollars.
