Securities Fraud Cases

Investors depend upon their brokers and advisors to create a comprehensive portfolio that allows them to have a favorable rate of return on their investments. Each person’s situation is different, and the plan that an investment firm creates must reflect those specific needs. When problems arise, the investor might allege that the firm engaged in securities fraud when carrying out its obligations. This allegation may lead to criminal charges.

With extensive experience representing our clients in state and federal courts, we know how to develop a comprehensive strategy that helps you defend against the criminal charges, as well as any civil proceedings that may result from your case.
