Investment Fraud
Investment Fraud information center:
Each year thousands of individuals across the Country sustained massive losses in the Investment Markets. Some of these losses are the result of fraud and/or mismanagement. This section of our website reviews these matters and the losses that can occur and your legal rights and options when fraud or mismanagement occurs to you or your family. If you need our Law Firm on your side call us at (210)922-2200.
One of the first steps in reviewing these types of claims is for an investment fraud expert to review and analyze the losses sustained in a brokerage account or investment scheme or by a publicly traded company. The losses can be evaluated against the existing market conditions during the relevant time in question. The expert can examine all the activity in the account: the commissions being charged, the pattern of trading, securities recommendations, funds and stock sold to you by the broker. After the expert’s analysis a determination can be made whether fraud occurred and whether investments in the account were suitable.
Many, if not most investors who discover they have been defrauded opt to go to arbitration to recover some of the losses. The arbitration process is quicker and less expensive than resorting to the courts, although that is sometimes necessary. Nearly 55% of matters brought for arbitration result in some sort of award. The average award is approximately 60% of the documented loss.
