Hilton Head Island Investment and Securities Fraud

The Hilton Head Island investment fraud lawyers at the Law Offices of Robert Wayne Pearce, P.A. represent clients in recovering losses caused by broker misconduct, Ponzi schemes, misrepresentation, churning, and breach of fiduciary duty. We handle cases through FINRA arbitration, litigation, and negotiated settlements, applying South Carolina’s Uniform Securities Act (§ 35-1-509) when brokers violate their obligations.

Attorney Robert Wayne Pearce works directly with clients in Hilton Head Island to investigate claims, develop legal strategies, and hold financial institutions accountable. We address complex matters such as margin call liquidations, private placement fraud, and large-scale investment scams under both state and federal securities laws.

We usually work on a contingency fee basis, but also offer hourly and alternative arrangements when appropriate.

Decades of Securities-Fraud Experience on Hilton Head Island

We represent Hilton Head Island investors and possess deep knowledge of South Carolina statutes and the hurdles local retirees, business owners, and second-home buyers may face. If you suspect misconduct, call us for a no-cost consultation.

Searching for an investment fraud or securities fraud attorney “near me” might not always get you the best attorney for your case. That said, we represent clients nationwide and have represented investors near you in Hilton Head Island and the greater Charleston area.

From seven-figure portfolios to more modest nest eggs that still deserve protection, we guide clients through FINRA arbitration and other remedies throughout Hilton Head Island’s premier communities:

  • Sea Pines & Wexford Plantation — Iconic gated enclaves known for golf-centric lifestyles and yacht harbors. High concentrations of discretionary wrap accounts here make excessive-fee or churning schemes especially costly.
  • Palmetto Dunes & Long Cove — Resort-oriented neighborhoods attracting short-term rental investors; complex financing structures can mask private-placement fraud targeting vacation-home buyers.
  • Spanish Wells & Hilton Head Plantation — Creek-front estates favored by high-net-worth retirees who may rely heavily on income-producing muni-bond ladders—making misrepresentation of bond ratings a recurring issue.
  • Port Royal Plantation & Indigo Run — Private golf communities where legacy family trusts often hold sizable brokerage accounts, creating opportunities for unauthorized annuity switches or unsuitable alternative-investment sales.
