Securities/Stock Fraud

Stock fraud occurs when the issuer of the security makes false statements about the company's status or fails to disclose important facts that may affect stock value, causing investors to buy or sell stocks under false pretenses. Claims can be brought against the issuer of the security, i.e. the public company, the company's officers, directors, or others involved in the violation, including stock brokers, underwriters, or auditors.

Stock Broker Fraud / Arbitration

There are a number of ways a Stock Broker or Financial Advisor can break laws surrounding investment practices. Stockbroker fraud or negligence can include misrepresenting stocks or risks, recommending unsuitable stocks, charging excessive transaction fees, or failing to diversify an investor's portfolio. It is a stockbroker's responsibility to consider their client's best interest in all investment transactions.

Stock Options / ERISA (Employee Retirement Income Security Act)
