Defending You Against A Variety Of Fraud Charges

As a firm of experienced trial lawyers, we have defended against a variety of securities fraud charges, including:

  • Unsuitable broker advice – If a stockbroker makes recommendation that isn’t suitable for their investor’s wants and needs, this could put them at risk for securities fraud charges. However, while broker advice that does not achieve an investor’s goals is costly and frustrating, that does not make that advice unsuitable.
  • Overconcentrating assets
  • Fraud in mutual funds – If a broker intentionally misrepresents the factors of investing in a mutual fund, this fraudulent action is punishable by law.
  • FINRA investigations – While an investigation does not necessarily mean that you will be charged, these investigations should still be taken seriously and responded to with the benefit of experienced legal guidance.
  • Pyramid schemes or ponzi schemes – When money is requested from new investors only to pay the funds that were promised to prior investors, the government punishes such offenses severely.
  • Insider trading – After a number of high-profile cases, insider trading is one of the most publicly recognized forms of securities fraud. These charges depend on the prosecution illustrating that insider information was used to make trade decisions.

In these and other forms of securities fraud charges, it is imperative that you work with an attorney that has the skill to defend your rights in court. Not only do our attorneys have that skill, they also have the experience necessary to defend you against these often complex and detailed charges.
