WeissLaw is investigating whether SSFN's Board acted to maximize
shareholder value prior to entering into the agreement.
Notably, the deal is a strategic transaction which will increase
Columbia's footprint in
New Jersey with the addition of
SSFN's 12 local banking offices. According to Columbia's President and CEO, "the merger
represents a significant step towards profitability deploying
capital we raised in our public offering and is a great fit with
our growth plan."
WeissLaw is also investigating whether SSFN's Board conducted a
fair process in agreeing to the proposed merger, whether the
proposed merger undervalues the Company, and whether all material
information related to the proposed merger is fully and fairly
disclosed.
WeissLaw LLP has litigated hundreds of stockholder class and
derivative actions for violations of corporate and fiduciary
duties. We have recovered over a billion dollars for
defrauded clients and obtained important corporate governance
relief in many of these cases. If you have information or
would like legal advice concerning possible corporate wrongdoing
(including insider trading, waste of corporate assets, accounting
