The Law Office of Abe Shainberg is investigating the Board of Directors of LaBranche & Co., Inc. (NYSE: LAB) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with the sale of the Company to Cowen Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: COWN). Under the terms of the proposed transaction, LaBranche stockholders will receive 0.9980 shares of Cowen stock for each LaBranche share they own. The transaction values LaBranche stock at $4.71 per share, based on the prior day closing prices, for a total transaction value of approximately $192.8 million.

The investigation concerns whether the LaBranche Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to LaBranche stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether Cowen Group is underpaying for LaBranche shares.
