NEW YORK, Aug. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. ("Altisource" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ASPS). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 888-476-6529, ext. 237.
The investigation concerns whether Altisource and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
