Robbins Umeda LLP's investigation focuses on whether the directors and officers of WebMD harmed the company by breaching their fiduciary duties to shareholders. In particular, the firm is investigating allegations that Chief Executive Officer Wayne T. Gattinella, and other fiduciaries at the company, issued improper statements to investors designed to artificially inflate the value of the company. Beginning on February 23, 2011, officers at the company allegedly issued positive financial statements to investors that failed to reflect adverse material facts about WebMD's numerous sponsorship cancellations, the extension of legal and regulatory laws, and declining advertisement revenue. During this time period, WebMD's Chief Financial Officer Anthony Vuolo, along with other WebMD executives, allegedly engaged in a coordinated insider trading scheme to reap $44.7 million in illegal proceeds from stock options sold while the company traded at inflated prices. On July 18, 2011, WebMD issued a press release stating that the company was forced to lower its fiscal guidance for 2011. On this news, WebMD shares fell $14.01, or 30% of their value, to close at $32.48 per share that day.

The law firm's skilled litigation teams include former federal prosecutors, former defense counsel from top multinational corporate law firms, and career [ shareholder rights attorneys ].
