What Ademi does

Ademi LLP is a plaintiff-side securities and shareholder litigation law firm founded in 2006 and headquartered in Cudahy, Wisconsin (a Milwaukee suburb). The firm represents individual investors and consumers in four practice areas: Stock Frauds (securities fraud class actions against companies that made inaccurate statements), Buyouts (shareholder challenges to M&A transactions alleged to benefit insiders over public shareholders and breach fiduciary duty), Antitrust (collusion and price-fixing matters), and Consumer Fraud (actions against debt collectors, mortgage companies, credit card issuers, insurers, and other businesses engaged in deceptive practices). The firm operates on a contingency-fee basis, advancing all litigation costs and earning fees only on successful recovery, and markets its services primarily through press release distribution (PR Newswire, Globe Newswire, GuruFocus, Morningstar) and SEO-optimized case-specific web pages organized by investigation, ongoing, recent, and resolved status.

The business model is a classic plaintiff-side contingency structure: no upfront fees to clients, free consultations, and the firm underwrites all costs of litigation. National scope is achieved from a single Wisconsin office by associating with locally licensed counsel as needed in federal and state courts across the United States. The firm is owned and operated by four named partners - Guri Ademi, Shpetim "Mick" Ademi, Daut "David" Ademi, and John D. Blythin - with no external investors, parent company, or institutional backing. Documented results include settlements of over $40M in the DHB Inc. matter, $17.5M in the Spiegel matter, and $3.35M in Tylenda v. Calogero (the last publicly praised by Delaware Court of Chancery Vice Chancellor Nathan Cook). The 2026 active docket includes investigations tied to M&A transactions valued at $10B+ (Crinetics/Vertex, Nuvalent/GSK, Bio-Techne/Merck) and $6B+ (Roku/Fox, Payoneer/Nuvei), plus ongoing consumer fraud final approvals.
