Juan Monteverde Yacht

Juan Monteverde Yacht is an accomplished attorney in New York City specializing in shareholder rights and corporate litigation. He has spent years advocating for individuals adversely affected by corporate fraud, mergers, and acquisitions that have undervalued their shares or led to unfair financial outcomes. His work has not only resulted in millions of dollars being recovered for shareholders but has also played a significant role in promoting greater transparency in executive compensation, especially in the years following the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act.

As the founder of Monteverde & Associates PC, located in the Empire State Building, Monteverde leads a team of highly skilled lawyers committed to protecting shareholders from corporate misconduct. The firm’s mission is to challenge corporations that engage in fraudulent activities or undervalued mergers and acquisitions. He and his team fight vigorously to ensure that shareholders are treated fairly and their rights are protected, regardless of the size or power of the corporations involved. His firm’s commitment to justice is summed up in his guiding principle, “no one is above the law,” which reflects his unyielding belief in holding corporations accountable.

Before founding his practice, Monteverde was a partner and chair of the Mergers and Acquisitions Litigation Department at Faruqi & Faruqi LLP from 2010 to 2016. Faruqi & Faruqi is a national law firm known for its class action litigation involving investors and consumers. His time at the firm gave him significant experience handling high-profile cases in mergers and acquisitions, securities fraud, and corporate governance. His leadership there helped him develop a sharp legal acumen and deep understanding of shareholder rights, which continue to guide his work today.

Monteverde also gained valuable experience earlier in his career as an associate at Levi & Korsinsky, where he represented clients in securities fraud and consumer protection cases. Additionally, his work at Smith Mazure Director Wilkins Young & Yagerman, a firm focused on civil litigation, provided him with further expertise in construction law, product liability, and civil rights. These early roles shaped his legal approach, ultimately leading him to concentrate on defending shareholders and challenging corporate wrongdoing.
