Securities Fraud

Securities fraud is a broad term that includes many specific types of financial fraud. A broad definition would be any type of mischaracterization by a securities agent (broker, etc.) that leads investors to purchase or sell investments without full knowledge of risks, often leading to significant losses for the uninformed investors. Broker misconduct is a serious offense.

If you are involved in a dispute with your broker or brokerage firm, we recommend that you consider seeking legal representation through an investment fraud lawyer. You should keep in mind that brokers and their firms are almost always represented by counsel when resolving customer disputes, and investment fraud attorneys with a background in securities law will have the experience that most investors are unlikely to have.

We offer free, confidential consultations for all first-time clients where we will review your securities law claim. If you are considering hiring our firm, please contact us now for your free case evaluation, and learn more about our firm’s process and whether we may be a good choice for you.
