Broker Fraud

Holding Dishonest Brokers Accountable On Behalf Of Investors

You should be able to trust a financial advisor or brokerage firm with your hard-earned money. While honesty and transparency should be at their ethical core, not all investment professionals live up to this standard.

Whether you experienced unauthorized trades, deceptive communication, or unsuitable investment recommendations, Schneider will fight for you. Offering personalized legal service, Mr. Schneider and his team will stop at nothing to ensure justice is effectively pursued on your behalf.

What Is Broker Fraud?

Broker fraud occurs when a trusted financial advisor or brokerage firm violates their obligation to act in your best interest. This can happen in a variety of ways, including excessive trading, unauthorized transactions, misrepresentation of investments, and more. At its foundation, broker fraud is a breach of trust – one that can cost you your financial stability.

Unfortunately, many investors aren’t aware that they’ve been defrauded until it’s too late. Once they do realize it, the damage to their investment portfolios, retirement accounts, and overall financial well-being may be significant. If you suspect wrongdoing, proactive action is essential. Qualified fraud recovery lawyers can help assess your losses, determine whether or not a violation took place, and guide you through the recovery process.

Will I Be Able To Get My Money Back?

While every circumstance is unique, defrauded investors may be entitled to recover some or all of their losses. However, this all depends on how quickly the fraud is discovered, the details of the misconduct, and whether the brokerage firm is liable for the actions of the advisor. In many cases, arbitration through FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) is the best way to seek a legal claim against negligent or dishonest brokers.

Investors may recover damages like out-of-pocket expenses, lost opportunity costs, and even punitive damages in egregious cases. An in-depth investigation will be necessary to determine whether the broker acted outside the bounds of ethical and professional standards. If they did, Schneider holds these actions accountable – seeking financial restoration on your behalf.
