Dean Hanley Biography :

Dean F. Hanley

Partner

Boston

Reflecting his substantial corporate and securities experience, Dean Hanley is Chair of both the firm's Securities Practice Group and its Sarbanes-Oxley Committee. He has also served as Deputy Coordinator of the 100-lawyer Business Department.

Dean has an active transactional practice involving securities offerings and merger and acquisition transactions. He represents a wide range of clients, including high-tech businesses, manufacturers, defense contractors, start-up companies, venture capitalists, major bracket underwriters, banks and bank holding companies, and retirement services businesses.

Corporate governance is a particular focus of Dean's work. He has extensive experience in dealing with SEC and FDIC regulators on a wide range of governance issues, including emerging issues and responsibilities under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Dean also counsels on compliance aspects of mergers and acquisitions, stock exchange requirements, the SEC's insider trading rules, use of the Internet for securities offerings, the SEC's short-swing profit recapture and reporting rules, and trading and marketing regulation.

In addition to his practice leadership, Dean has for more than 10 years been Chair of the firm's Conflicts and Professional Responsibility Committee, a role in which he focuses on issues of legal ethics, attorney liability, loss prevention, malpractice insurance, and the Massachusetts conflict of interest law. He also honed his compliance experience during two terms (including the chairmanship) on the Massachusetts Board of Public Accountancy, the body that certifies and licenses CPAs in the Commonwealth.
