FRAUD AND MISCONDUCT INVESTIGATIONS

Most securities fraud investigations begin by some alleged misdeed by a stockbroker, brokerage firm or financial advisor.

Sometimes, investigations are triggered by unauthorized, unsuitable or excessive trading. Other times it may be the result of misleading or inaccurate information that generate high commissions for the brokers and significant losses for the investor.

If you feel you have sustained financial losses related to investment fraud, you may have a strong case for recovery. It is critical that you seek an attorney well-versed in the nuances of complex business disputes and experienced in applying the appropriate securities law.

At Falls & Veach, we can help you determine if your investment losses were the result of normal market forces or broker misconduct. Our top priority is to understand your unique personal circumstances in order to anticipate every possible outcome.

We will use a detailed and forensic approach to calculate the extent of your losses. If after conducting a thorough account analysis we find a connection between inappropriate broker/advisor practices and your losses, we will have the ammunition needed to advise you on the best course of action.

The attorneys at Falls & Veach understand this is not money you can afford to lose. From the very beginning, we will give you an honest assessment of your situation and lay out your alternatives. We may recommend going to trial. Or we may suggest settling out of court. Ultimately it is your decision which legal avenue to take.
