Securities Litigation Cases
Securities litigation cases arise from instances of securities fraud. This type of fraud occurs when brokers or corporate insiders provide misleading or false information to investors regarding their money. Oftentimes, the broker or corporation fails to disclose information that would directly influence an investor’s decision to buy or sell stocks, bonds or mutual funds.
There are numerous types of securities litigation cases that can be filed in a court of law. Each case is dependent upon several different factors, including instances of:
Broker negligence ”“Brokers have a duty to recommend investments that are reasonably suitable and do not put their clients at risk of financial harm. This includes conducting an adequate suitability analysis, disclosing penalties to the investor and diversifying the investor’s portfolio. If a broker or firm fails to act responsibly on behalf of the investor, a negligence claim can be pursued. However, negligence claims do not require proof of intent to cause harm.
Investment fraud ”“ Investment fraud is any scheme or deception involving investments that affect a particular individual or business. These types of schemes are often characterized by offers of low or no-risk investments and guaranteed returns. Investment fraud practices can include insider trading, market manipulation fraud, Ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes and advance fee fraud. Investment schemes typically target members of certain groups, such as religious or ethnic communities, in order to exploit the trust and friendship that exists in groups.
Failure to supervise ”“ Management at a brokerage firmhas a legal duty to supervisetheir brokers’ conductto ensure that they are properly trainedand compliant with state and federal securities laws. If a firm fails to supervise a broker, and the broker commits an act of fraud, the firm can be held liable for its failure to supervise. Firms must have an adequate system for implementing and enforcing their supervisory policies. This includes having written procedures in place, conducting internal inspections, reviewing internal firm communications and filing annual compliance reports.
Churning ”“ Churning is the excessive buying and trading of investments in a client’s account. Brokers often trade excessively to boost their own commissions. Clients end up losing money due to unsound timing of trades and added broker fees. If churning occurs, our firm’s attorneys will work alongside financial experts to prove that unusual trading activity or excessive transactions occurred to generate more commissions for the broker that were not in the client’s best interest.
Other instances of improper investment practices include late-day trading, market timing fraud, earnings mismanagement and companies that issue misleading information. If you believe a person or corporate entity has unethically mismanaged your funds, the securities litigation attorneys at Phillips Law Group can help you file a lawsuit to prevent further financial losses and to hold the responsible parties accountable for their actions. We can also help you recover your lost funds, plus additional compensation.

My Attorney Sean Davis and his paralegal Hannah Dustin worked on my case. They listened to the problems that I was having with my case and they both got right to work. First they found me a doctor that actually listened to my problems from my car accident and worked quickly to form a plan that was comfortable for me and the doctor. The doctor was the best and after a couple of procedures the pain in my neck was gone. Behind the scenes Sean and Hannah were working hard to get my case settled with the insurance company. They kept in contact with me on all aspects of my case. They settled my case much faster than I expected and for more than I was expecting. If you want two real professional legal people to work on your case, I would highly recommend Sean and Hannah to you. I cannot say enough nice things about these two. Thank you so much, Rickey Hart .

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.
