Securities Fraud Litigation

Defending securities issuers and intermediaries, along with obtaining significant recoveries for defrauded investors, has brought our clients tremendous benefits, and us great satisfaction.

• As reported in the Wall Street Journal, the Times of London and the Los Angeles Times, we recovered $43 million on behalf of investors in the Securities Groups.

• We defended securities violation claims by investors in municipal bond and interest rate hedges.

• On behalf of more than 200 investors in Hedged Investments Associates, we prosecuted an action resulting in a confidential recovery based on Colorado securities laws.

• For an issuer, we defended an investor class action alleging price manipulation.

• For the recipient of investment club proceeds, we prevented an SEC examination.

• For institutional investors, applying the securities laws of Florida, Delaware and Colorado, we recovered losses stemming from the recapitalization of a financial start-up.

• For a prominent Los Angeles area law firm we were retained as an expert witness on securities fraud liability.

• For a client involved in an NASD arbitration, we recovered an award for the full amount sought based on broker misrepresentations and failures to execute trades in a timely manner.
