An Investment Fraud Law Firm that other lawyers call to help them and their clients with investment misconduct claims.
With offices in Ohio and California, our securities and investment fraud lawyers are nationally recognized for representing individual and institutional investors across the country in securities arbitration, mediation and litigation to recover losses caused by the misconduct of stockbrokers, brokerage firms, financial advisors, and insurance companies. The firm has the highest peer ratings by all three of the major attorney rating services -- The Best Lawyers in America®, Martindale-Hubbell, and SuperLawyers. Pursuing investor claims and class actions is all we do; all day, every day. Many of our clients are referred to our law firm by their family lawyer, business lawyer, accountant or new financial advisor. All of our cases are handled on a contingency fee, meaning we only earn a fee if money is recovered.The goal of this website is to provide up-to-date and comprehensive information and resources for individuals who believe they, or someone they care about, suffered investment or other financial losses caused by investment misconduct. We do this by regularly adding new content (not merely copied from other websites) in our sections on Investor News, Articles, Current Investigations, Frequently Asked Questions, and on our Investor Blog. We also created numerous Informational Videos on a wide range of topics relating to investment misconduct. We hope you find these resources helpful.
When you trust a stockbroker or financial advisor with your investments, you are entrusting that advisor with your future financial security. When that trust is broken and the broker commits fraud, mismanages your investments or engages in unethical or illegal conduct, you should consult an experienced investment fraud attorney.
How do I find the best investment fraud attorney to help me pursue my case?
The short answer is that you need to do your homework. It is not as easy as downloading the name of a lawyer from the Internet who claims to be "the best securities arbitration lawyer in the country." Investors should contact a securities law firm that demonstrates a strong commitment to investor claims, has the experience representing investors successfully and has the resources and depth to work up the cases properly. We invite you to explore our website to learn more about our firm and why we stand out. We encourage you to contact us if you would like to learn more about what we do and how we do it.
