Robbins Umeda LLP, a shareholder rights litigation firm, is interested in helping shareholders of CNA Surety Corporation (NYSE: SUR).

On April 21, 2011, CNA and SUR announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which CNA will commence a tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of SUR not currently owned by subsidiaries of CNA for $26.55 per share in cash. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the second quarter.

The investigation focuses on whether SUR's board is undertaking a fair process to obtain maximum value for its shareholders. Of particular interest, SUR reported strong fourth quarter 2010 results that beat analyst estimates. As a result, one analyst raised their target price for the company to $29.00.
