Can Your Firm Help Recover my Investment Losses?

To reclaim any losses from your investments, you need to demonstrate that your broker-dealer or financial advisor failed in their duty of care owed to you as an investor.

In most cases, this means filing a FINRA arbitration claim against the broker-dealer and/or representative, which we would do for you.

The majority of securities fraud cases are handled by FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) rather than being brought to the court system.

FINRA arbitration is a streamlined, cost-effective way to resolve disputes between investors and their brokers without going to court – it also allows you to collect punitive damages, which are not available in civil court!!

We’re currently investigating several financial firms and stockbrokers who may have been the subject of customer complaints, may be facing legal action, and who may have acted unethically and committed fraud in Delaware, including:

Delaware Laws Related to Investment Fraud

Delaware investors benefit from a robust framework of protections designed to ensure fair and transparent markets and to prevent fraud. They don’t always succeed.. These safeguards include:

    • Key Laws and Regulations
        • The Delaware Securities Act: The cornerstone of Delaware investor protection, this law combats fraud, mandates the registration of most securities, and provides avenues for investors to seek recourse if they’ve been misled.

        • The Delaware General Corporation Law: This outlines shareholder rights and the responsibilities of company leaders, aiming to ensure that corporations act in the shareholders’ best interests.

        • The Delaware Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA): This broad law empowers investors to take action against unfair or deceptive investment practices.

    • Governing Agencies
        • Delaware State Securities Board: This agency is the primary watchdog for the Delaware securities industry. They register offerings, license brokers, investigate misconduct, and educate investors about their rights.

        • Office of the Delaware Attorney General (Consumer Protection Division): Focused on consumer protection, this office can intervene in cases of investment fraud or other deceptive practices that harm Delaware investors.

    • National Regulatory Bodies
        • FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority): FINRA oversees all broker-dealers in the US, setting ethical standards, enforcing securities laws, and providing investor education resources. They work alongside the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) for broad investor protection.

Types of Investment and Securities Loss Cases We Can Help Represent You With

In Delaware, investors who suffer losses commonly encounter various types of investment fraud tactics used by unscrupulous brokers and advisors. Among the most prevalent are unsuitable investments, where recommendations do not align with the investor’s needs, and forced liquidation, where brokers sell assets without client consent.

Ponzi schemes, which promise high returns but are ultimately fraudulent, are another common issue. Excessive trading, or churning, generates commissions for advisors rather than benefiting the client. Misrepresentation and omission involve providing deceptive or misleading information about investments.

Breach of fiduciary duty and unauthorized trading also pose significant risks to investors. Additionally, failure to supervise, overconcentration, and theft or misappropriation of client funds are frequent issues faced by investors in Delaware.

Other common frauds include mutual fund sales violations, excessive markups/markdowns, and selling unapproved investments. Cryptocurrency scams present a growing threat to investors. Furthermore, margin abuse, conflicts of interest, and the sale of risky, non-registered securities such as private placements are notable concerns.

401(k) plan misconduct, microcap fraud, and schemes involving fictitious investments in mining or minerals are also prevalent. Investors should be wary of EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program fraud, advance fee schemes, and many other tactics not listed here.
