Signal Law Group is an independent research and investigations firm operating outside the practice of law . We apply proprietary signal-detection methodology to identify patterns of misconduct and disclosure risk — and, through Signal Proxy Intelligence, to read every proxy ballot from the seat of the common shareholder.
We concentrate on the pre-dispute phase — where emerging patterns of conduct, harm, and operational failure can be observed before claims are filed or enforcement begins. Through structured analysis of developing fact patterns and market signals, we deliver objective findings that support underwriting, case evaluation, capital deployment, and shareholder voting.
We conduct research and investigation only: no litigation, no advocacy, no legal advice.
Thematic programs focused on discrete risk issues — examining patterns of conduct, harm, and exposure across companies, products, and sectors to identify where liability may emerge.
Fact-based investigative work that validates emerging allegations, tests credibility, and assesses scope — establishing an objective record before positions harden.
Continuous monitoring of defined risk areas to detect acceleration, clustering, and inflection points in real time. Built to identify change, not confirm it after the fact.
Structured analysis that synthesizes large, fragmented datasets into coherent findings designed to withstand scrutiny by sophisticated counterparties.
Concise, decision-ready reports for underwriting committees, investment teams, and legal review — focused on clarity, evidence, and relevance.
Independent FOR / AGAINST / WITHHOLD research on every proxy ballot item, published within 48 hours of filing. The investigations capability, turned on the annual vote.
Two firms control more than 90% of the proxy advisory market, and their client is the asset manager — not the person who owns the stock. Signal Proxy Intelligence reads every definitive proxy statement the day it hits EDGAR and publishes a recommendation on every ballot item, timestamped and on the record, within 48 hours.
Not a policy matrix. Each ballot item — director elections, say-on-pay, shareholder proposals — analyzed from the economic interest of a common holder.
Publication time is part of the methodology and part of the record. The clock starts when EDGAR accepts the filing; the recommendation lands before the vote, not after.
We accept no money from the companies we cover. The conflict at the heart of the incumbent model does not exist here — by corporate design, not editorial promise.
Every recommendation is timestamped at publication and never altered, then reconciled against the company’s reported vote — a track record checkable by anyone.
