The Law Offices of Todd M. Garber announced that shareholders of Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation have until May 20, 2013 to move for lead plaintiff status in the shareholder lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of a class comprising all purchasers of Great Lakes securities between August 7, 2012 and March 14, 2013.
