NEW YORK, June 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Sadis & Goldberg LLP, a leading New York based law firm recognized for its financial services practice, was named the 2010 Corporate Advisory Firm of the Year in New York by Corporate Intl Magazine Global Awards.  

Sadis & Goldberg represents a wide variety of domestic and international corporations and financial institutions in corporate finance transactions including mergers and acquisitions, drafting and negotiating complex operating and shareholder agreements, private placement of debt and equity and the negotiation of strategic alliances.  Most recently we represented SkyBridge Capital in their recent acquisition of the fund of hedge funds, hedge fund seeding and hedge fund advisory businesses from Citi Alternative Investments with total investments under management and advisory of $4.2 billion.  

In anticipation of the enhanced regulatory environment and in light of the business climate, Sadis has expanded its Financial Services Practice, as well as its Regulatory and Litigation Departments.  The Financial Services Practice was expanded to provide its clients Alternative Investment Due Diligence. The practice is now able to perform necessary due diligence of all facets of an investment adviser's regulatory compliance, both on behalf of management seeking to shore up operations, as well as investors conducting due diligence prior to an initial investment or in connection with an ongoing investment.  The Litigation Practice, after many years of representing hundreds of investment funds, developed an industry-leading corporate governance and shareholder activism practice.  The group counsels on legal issues ranging from corporate governance principles and fiduciary duty law to derivative actions, M&A litigation and appraisal rights proceedings.  The Regulatory Practice provides regulatory and compliance advice and representation in connection with SEC enforcement proceedings as well as responding when clients become the target of enforcement actions, a demand for information, or litigation.  

Sadis & Goldberg has led over 600 hedge funds and other investment funds to success and provides a full range of sophisticated legal services, including tax, litigation, regulatory, real estate, public finance, intellectual property and corporate services to national and international businesses.  "We are honored to be recognized by the leading magazine for business leaders, professional advisors and providers of finance throughout the world and want to thank our clients for their endorsement of our services," said Ron S.
