Central Florida Securities Attorneys
Stockbrokers, brokerage firms, investment advisors and other financial professionals have a responsibility to provide clients with appropriate and honest financial advice. When their clients suffer losses as a result of inappropriate or dishonest financial advice, investors may hold them liable to recover those losses through litigation or arbitration.
There are many ways in which financial professionals and stockbrokers can take advantage of their investors and these professionals may be liable to compensate investors for losses that are incurred as a result of any inappropriate or fraudulent behavior. At the law firm of Lanigan & Lanigan, PL, located in Winter Park, Florida, we represent investors in securities litigation and arbitration.
This includes cases involving:
- Fraud and misrepresentation of information
- Negligent advice on unsuitable investments
- Improper executions
- Unauthorized trades
- Failure to carry out trade instructions
- Churning
- Selling away
- Unregistered securities
- Unethical "boiler room" sales practices
- Ponzi and pyramid schemes
If you feel that you have suffered losses as the result of the actions of your stockbroker or other financial professional, contact us Lanigan & Lanigan, PL.
Securities Arbitration
In some cases involving investors and stockbroker responsibility and liability, there is little possibility of trying the case through litigation. Most major brokerage houses write arbitration clauses into their agreements that require that any disputes are resolved through an arbitration process. In arbitration, the case is not tried before a judge, but instead is brought before three arbitrators who will make a decision about the case.
While litigation is, at times, preferable to arbitration in these cases, the lawyers at the law firm of Lanigan & Lanigan, PL, represent individuals in cases involving arbitration and our firm will aggressively pursue our clients' rights regardless of the forum.
