Dan Maguire is Of Counsel to the Firm and concentrates his practice with the Firms's international and domestic securities group.
Mr. Maguire bases his practice in California and focuses on investor protection issues. In this capacity, Mr. Maguire works closely with SRKW's public pension clients and Taft-Hartley funds in California. Mr. Maguire’s aim is to assist the fiduciaries for these funds to help ensure that their investments are adequately monitored and protected from the risks associated with corporate fraud and poor corporate governance.
For 30-years prior to joining SRKW, Mr. Maguire was the general counsel for the San Francisco Employees Retirement System (“SFERS”). SFERS is a charter-based public pension plan. Based on assets, SFERS has been in the top 100 pensions plans in the United States for decades.
As general counsel for SFERS, Mr. Maguire worked with outside counsel on several well-known securities fraud class action cases as well as successful "opt-out" cases. While at SFERS, Mr. Maguire developed policies for portfolio monitoring, claims evaluation and securities litigation. Mr. Maguire also has an active civil litigation practice, with a specialty in products liability and risk management for self-insureds, which is unrelated to SRKW.
Mr. Maguire graduated from the University of San Francisco with a B.S. in History (1968) and earned his law degree from the University of San Francisco (J.D. 1973). Mr. Maguire is based in San Francisco and had been admitted to practice law in California (1973).
