The Law Firm Of Weiss & Lurie Investigates HealthSpring, Inc.

Weiss & Lurie, a national class action and shareholder rights law firm with offices in New York City and Los Angeles, is investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the Board of Directors of HealthSpring, Inc. (NYSE: HS) arising from its proposed acquisition by Cigna Corporation (NYSE: CI) for $55.00 per share in cash, in a transaction valued at approximately $3.8 billion. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2012.

Weiss & Lurie is investigating whether HealthSpring’s Board acted in the best interests of its shareholders in approving the transaction and whether HealthSpring shareholders are receiving adequate consideration for their shares. HealthSpring’s existing management team, led by its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Herbert A. Fritch, will lead Cigna’s expansion into its Seniors and Medicare segments after the transaction closes.
