The firm
A staple of the US legal market since 1879, sources say “the quality of people” currently at Sullivan & Cromwell “makes them a tier one firm.” A majority of the 219 litigators practice from headquarters in New York, while smaller groups in Washington DC and California also contribute greatly to the firm’s reputation. Commended for a “great trial team” that is “very strong on written advocacy,” one client stressed that those “looking for a lot of good people, not just a lot of people, to handle big cases” can count on this group.
Though said to be “preeminent overall,” the firm has developed some well- respected specialties in areas such as international arbitration and antitrust. A magnet for some of the largest financial institutions in the country, such as Goldman Sachs, UBS, Barclays and The Bank of New York, the firm has substantial securities and white-collar criminal expertise and has taken a leading role in many of the major government investigations of late. Partners are further called upon by a growing group of clients to address intellectual property matters. In an effort to expand upon these already strong areas of expertise, the firm has recently reorganized to add a number of new formal subdivisions, including appellate and arbitration groups.
Litigation stars
Chief among the firm’s “strong gene pool” is
Robert Giuffra, who serves as the coordinator of the securities litigation group and earned particular credit for his work in this area, as well as for his white-collar defense abilities. Giuffra has spent most of his time in recent years defending UBS and Computer Associates, two of the firm’s largest clients. Managing partner David Braff is widely commended for his “deep knowledge” of securities law, as is Gandolfo
“Vince” DiBlasi, who is additionally gifted in
white-collar criminal defense and routinely hailed as “one of the best lawyers in the country.” Peers hail DiBlasi as a “solid, aggressive and thorough” litigator for his work on behalf of Goldman Sachs. He is further recognized for securing a motion to vacate the guilty plea against former Arthur Andersen partner David Duncan following the US Supreme Court’s reversal of the accounting firm’s conviction. One client said, “David Tulchin is my first choice if I have to take a case to trial” and others agree that this lawyer “is really very good” in the courtroom. Recognized as a leading antitrust authority, he has “won some big cases” for Microsoft in recent history. Steven Holley
also has worked extensively on this client’s behalf and is considered one of the firm’s antitrust experts. One client said, “Sullivan & Cromwell has a number of people who know our business better than anybody, and Steve is one of them – in some ways he’s our institutional memory.”
Market observers say leading white-collar criminal practitioners Karen Patton Seymour and Samuel “Sam” Seymour are a “great pair.” Patton Seymour came to the firm after serving as the Chief of the Criminal Division of the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York and currently heads the firm’s criminal defense and investigations group. In recent years, Sam Seymour has resolved government investigations on behalf of clients such as The Bank of New York and Bankers Trust Company. Joseph “Joe”
Neuhaus and James Carter coordinate the
firm’s premier arbitration practice and are both considered top international arbitration experts. Yvonne Quinn heads the antitrust group and is recognized as an antitrust leader among the best in the country. Peers describe her as “knowledgeable, competent and practical.” John Warden “is up there” as well, according to leading antitrust practitioners. Clients dubbed Sharon Nelles “a lawyer of consequence at the firm” who is “at the top of her game.” One said, “Whenever I get in to a pinch, I want her on the playing field.” Peers appreciate Nelles as a “really clear, strategic thinker and a very responsive” lawyer.
Experience
The firm’s general commercial engagements range from successfully prosecuting a patent infringement case on behalf of long-time client Philips Electronics to representing beverage giant Diageo. The firm has led the latter through a series of lawsuits seeking $20 billion on behalf of parents challenging the company’s alcoholic beverage advertising, which allegedly targeted underage children, and in August 2006 the firm achieved its sixth straight dismissal with prejudice in this litigation.
Peers proclaimed that “Sullivan & Cromwell is a machine” in the white-collar criminal arena. After leading Computer
Associates in an internal investigation, the
firm represented the company in external investigations conducted by the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In 2004, Robert Giuffra negotiated a final settlement that helped keep this client in business and he continues to represent the company in ongoing matters stemming from this settlement, including securities and class
action litigation. Matters for UBS and UBS
Securities also have consumed a considerable portion of Giuffra’s time of late, and he represented these clients in connection with government investigations arising from UBS’s former role as the lead investment banker for HealthSouth and further counsels them in separate securities class action and derivative matters currently pending in Alabama. The firm also helped
Solvay to resolve a DOJ investigation
concerning price-fixing of hydrogen peroxide and sodium perborate in June 2006 and continues to represent this client in related multi-district class action litigation brought by direct and indirect purchasers of the peroxgens.
One peer said that Sullivan & Cromwell’s stellar securities reputation is due largely to its relationship with Goldman Sachs, and the firm, led by Vince DiBlasi, serves as lead defense counsel to this client and as liaison counsel to 55 investment bank defendants in the IPO allocation class actions, one of the most complex and long-running securities matters currently at play. In a significant 2006 victory, DiBlasi convinced the Second Circuit court of appeals to reverse the class certification for the case. In another case of national importance, partner David Braff has served as counsel to Barclays for the past four years in the Enron investor class action brought against the client and a number of other investment bank defendants. In its most recent victory, the firm convinced the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit to find the claims against the client devoid of merit, thwarting the Enron shareholders’ attempt to sue as a class and leading them to seek review of this highly important decision by the United States Supreme Court.
In the antitrust arena, the firm stands out for its nearly decade long representation of
Microsoft Corporation. Partners have
represented the company through more than 100 important antitrust matters brought by both consumers and competitors and secured the dismissal of dozens of these actions along the way. In one such success in 2005, the firm convinced a court of appeals to rule that indirect purchasers lacked standing to pursue their antitrust claims against the client, a decision which led to the dismissal of consumer actions in 15 states. In another recent success, the firm achieved the reversal of an order from the Iowa State Supreme Court in Comes v Microsoft, which in turn helped the client reach a favorable settlement in another case tried in the state.

Firm profile
Founded in New York in 1879, Sullivan & Cromwell LLP comprises approximately 700 lawyers conducting a global practice through 12 offices on four continents. The Firm’s clients are nearly evenly divided between US and non-US entities and include leading industrial and commercial companies; financial institutions; private funds; educational, charitable and cultural institutions; governments; and a select group of individuals, estates and trusts.
Litigation practice
Managing partner: David H Braff
Deputy managing partner: Richard C Pepperman II
Sullivan & Cromwell’s litigators act as lead counsel in many of the highest-profile, most complex litigation matters before courts, arbitration panels and regulators worldwide. The Firm’s reputation in litigation stems from more than 100 years of experience and involvement in many of the landmark cases in the development of US law.
Drawing on S&C’s deep experience and leadership position as a corporate, financial and transactional firm, the Firm’s lawyers form seamlessly integrated teams across relevant practice areas and are prepared to handle any related or follow-on matters that arise in the course of litigation. The Litigation Group has up-to-date knowledge of developments in a wide range of practice areas, including antitrust, arbitration, securities, commodities, corporate
governance, criminal defense and investigations, banking, intellectual property, environmental law, products liability, and labor and employment law.
Highlights of the firm’s litigation work
In 2006 and 2007, the Firm’s litigators achieved notable success in important and precedent-setting matters, while also handling a diverse array of matters spanning the Firm’s global practice.
In a prime example, S&C argued before the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on behalf of Goldman Sachs and as liaison counsel to the 55 underwriter investment banks in one of the most complex and long-running securities litigation matters ever, In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation. The Second Circuit, reversing the district court’s class certification order, issued a landmark ruling that clarified the requirements for obtaining class action status in a decision that will resonate across putative class actions in all areas of complex litigation.
Another compelling example of the Firm’s success is its defense of Barclays in the Enron securities class action (In re Enron Corp Sec, Derivative & “ERISA” Litigation), widely considered to be the largest and most complex securities class action ever. Despite settlements by other financial institutions in the action totaling in excess of US$6.6 billion,
S&C’s strategy to litigate aggressively while seeking dismissal of the action and appellate review proved successful when the district court ruled that the plaintiffs’ claims against Barclays were deficient and then, while the district court gave plaintiffs a last chance to plead new claims against Barclays and with an April 2007 trial looming, the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit reversed the class certification order, effectively ending the case in the absence of a reversal by the US Supreme Court.
S&C also argued cases that set significant precedents under Delaware corporate law. In a victory for the directors of AmSouth, the Firm obtained a decision from the Delaware Supreme Court that sets high hurdles for plaintiffs attempting to assign blame to corporate directors (Stone v Ritter). S&C successfully defended JPMorgan and current and former members of its Board of Directors following the company’s merger with Bank One, obtaining a decision in the Delaware Supreme Court that set an important precedent regarding the standards for obtaining proxy damages (Taylor v Harrison).
Other notable representations
Banco Espirito Santo, the Portuguese banking conglomerate, on whose behalf S&C won a June 2007 verdict of gross negligence against BDO Seidman, the fifth largest accounting firm in the US, on a claim that BDO failed to detect that its audit client had engaged in a major fraud and stole more than US$170 million of Espirito Santo loans. In August 2007, the jury returned verdicts awarding Espirito Santo US$170 million in compensatory damages and US$351 million in punitive damages against BDO.
UBS in another major Enron-related securities class action and in class action and derivative litigation in connection with its role as lead investment banker to HealthSouth.
Morgan Stanley, for whom S&C won dismissal of multiple actions arising out of the AOL-Time Warner merger.
Swedish mobile phone provider TeliaSonera, on whose behalf S&C achieved a significant arbitration victory when a tribunal of the International Chamber of Commerce in Geneva held that TeliaSonera was entitled to specific
enforcement of a US$3.1 billion contract to purchase Turkey’s leading mobile phone provider Turkcell.
Statoil in the settlement of Foreign Corrupt Practices Act-related investigations by the SEC and DOJ, including a deferred prosecution agreement in the Southern District of New York.
CA, Inc. in continuing advice related to the various investigations and litigations arising from its accounting practice, and in obtaining the dismissal with prejudice of all pending fraud and obstruction of justice charges against CA.
British Airways and Solvay SA in global criminal antitrust investigations and related litigation.
CSR Limited, for whom S&C obtained settlements totaling A$280 million in insurance coverage litigation against more than 60 insurers worldwide. Diageo Plc, on whose behalf S&C won dismissals in numerous class actions over advertising practices.
Microsoft for the last seven years in private antitrust litigation brought in numerous jurisdictions by competitors and classes of end-users of Microsoft software, obtaining dismissals on the merits of dozens of cases.

Highly recommended firms
One market insider said Sullivan &
Cromwell is a firm clients can count on when
“looking for a lot of good people, not just a lot of people, to handle big cases.” Ranked for its broad-ranging capabilities as one of the country’s top general commercial groups, the firm is known for its specialty in international arbitration. It has further carved a niche in financial services litigation, and peers say it is particularly adept at representing clients in securities matters. Over the past four years, Barclays has benefited from the firm’s guidance through the Enron securities class action. But it is the firm’s representation of Goldman Sachs in the IPO allocation class actions that has earned it particular renown in recent years. Peers label the firm “a machine” in its defense of white-collar criminal matters and partners recently helped Computer Associates negotiate a settlement of government investigations allowing the client to stay in business. Also recognized as an antitrust leader, the firm has mounted a nearly decade long defense of Microsoft Corporation and is widely praised for its work on behalf of this client.
Peers count Gandolfo “Vince” DiBlasi as “one of the absolute best trial lawyers in the country.” Described as “very smart, very pragmatic, aggressive and tenacious,” DiBlasi is credited with handling some of the most important financial services cases in recent years and is recognized as a leader in securities and white-collar criminal circles. Coordinator of the securities practice Robert Giuffra is recognized for his securities and white-collar expertise, and though managing partner David
Braff handles a range of matters, he too is
widely commended for his “deep knowledge” of securities law. Described as a “great pair,”
Karen Patton Seymour and Samuel Seymour
earned consistent praise as two of the strongest white-collar practitioners in the country. Peers consider head of the antitrust group Yvonne
Quinn a “knowledgeable, smart, practical and
competent” leader in the area and unanimously agree that John Warden is also “up there” on the list of top antitrust litigators. Market insiders note Warden for his role in the Microsoft litigation and his other clients include Amax, Bank of New York, British Airways and Goldman Sachs. Co-coordinators of the arbitration practice Joseph “Joe”
Neuhaus and James Carter are both considered
top international arbitration experts. “Rising star” Sharon Nelles earned client appreciation for being a “really clear, strategic thinker and a very responsive” lawyer.
