Brokers at financial institutions have a legal obligation to ensure that they are acting in good faith when trading or investing in securities, such as stocks or bonds, on behalf of their clients. If a broker fails to protect the investor’s interests, he or she may be able to take legal action to recover compensation.
If you or someone you know has been the victim of securities fraud, we recommend that you retain the services of an experienced attorney. The Yuma securities litigation lawyers at Phillips Law Group are well-versed on the illegal and unethical practices committed by different financial institutions. We have helped recover more than $1 billion in compensation of behalf of our clients.
Your initial consultation with our firm is 100 percent free. There is no risk or obligation to take legal action. Should you have a case and decide to move forward, there are no upfront fees involved. You only pay us if we help you recover compensation at the end of the legal process.

Securities Litigation Cases Our Firm Handles
Our licensed Yuma securities litigation attorneys are prepared to take on many different types of securities litigation cases. Some of the most common include:
Insider Trading
This happens when a broker or financial institution uses information that is not public knowledge for personal gain or to benefit from a business transaction. Examples of insider trading include exchanging securities after uncovering confidential information about a company’s financial position.
Investment Fraud
This could be a scheme or deception about an investment that affects a particular investor or company. These schemes often target specific groups, such as religious groups, and offer guaranteed return or low to no-risk investments that are too good to be true. Examples include Ponzi schemes and pyramid schemes.
Market Manipulation
This happens when a broker or financial institution manipulates the appearance of a security, such as the price or availability of a stock or bond. A broker may use market manipulation to convince an investor to make decisions based on false or misguided information in order to purchase the security and drive up the amount. Once the amount of the security is high enough, the broker will cash out his or her shares for profit.
Broker Negligence
When someone is seeking out investment advice, they expect and deserve to be able to rely on the brokers providing that advice to prioritize their need for a secure financial future over the broker’s own financial interests. If a broker fails to act accordingly on behalf of the investor, a claim may be pursued.
Churning
This happens when a broker excessively buys or trades investments on behalf of the investor so he or she can increase their own commissions. This act is not only illegal and unethical, but it can also make investors lose out on money because of an unsound timing of trades and added broker fees.
Failure to Supervise
Management at a brokerage firm also has a legal obligation to properly supervise their brokers to make sure that they are compliant with state and federal securities laws. A firm that does not adequately train or oversee a broker who commits an act of fraud could be responsible for failure to supervise.
Breach of Fiduciary Duties
Brokers and financial institutions have a fiduciary duty toward their investors. They have a duty to act in good faith, fair dealing and full disclosure. Examples of a breach of fiduciary duties include failing to disclose certain information, misappropriation of funds, misuse of influential position, and neglect of responsibilities.

They knew exactly how to explain the case to me in a way that I would understand it. They gave me hope that my life wasn’t over.

My review is for Kathy Hudson a legal assistant at the law firm. She is great! She is very professional and a fair based person. She was never rude to me and always called me back. She listened to me and had my best interest as number 1. Mr Nasir who is a supervisor at law firm also was very professional and helpful. Not sure if spelling his name correctly but sorry if not. As far as mr Ross and the lady that runs the front desk reception I would say they are the most unprofessional and rude people I have met at a law firm in my life especially beings they were representing me. But Kathy made it overall a better experience. Thx Kathy.

Liz Gonzales was great!!!!

I was recently served court documents that I was being sued from an accident that happened years ago. For someone who has never been through something like this and not familiar with the court lingo or where to even begin, it was very frustrating and stressful. I reached out to a family member who knew Tracy Laskos and the great reputation of Phillips Law Group and within the hours of the initial call for help, I had a direct number to Lead Attorney Nassar. Nassar heard my case and almost instantly put me at ease by explaining the process and how easy it was to handle. Nassar spoke to me like he was a friend, not like I was a client. I am so grateful to Tracy, Nasar and of course my cousin Stephanie for helping out and giving me the direction that I needed to get through this situation. I plan on referring my friends, family and patients that are in need of a personal injury Attorney to Phillips Law Group. Thank you!!

Great experience! Took care of pretty much everything, and I always felt like I want in good hands. Caroline Fa. was also a great help with everything. She always returned my calls and I never felt unheard. Even after my case she would still help me with my insurance documents.

Juan Roque has been integral with my legal needs. Communication has been easy. He conveys information I can easily understand without a lot of "Legal Fluff" jargon. I will certainly do business with Phillips Legal team again and refer them to my friends and family.
