Sean Dowsing and Roya Fohrer Offer Fresh Approach for D&O Claims in New Article

Orange County office Managing Partner Sean Dowsing and Los Angeles Partner Roya H. Fohrer composed an article on Directors & Officers liability that has been published in a recent edition of the Orange County Lawyer. Using Tuli v. Specialty Surgical Center of Thousand Oaks, LLC (2024) as a guide, Dowsing and Fohrer offer tips for navigating the business judgment rule, which shields directors and officers from liability if their decisions were deemed to be made in good faith, even in self-dealing transactions. The article advocates for a more upfront approach to handling D&O claims to reach faster evaluations of claims and minimize costs.
