Securities Fraud
Federal and state
laws provide a legal remedy for defrauded investors to recover their losses.
Investors may also be entitled to compensation for the loss of income that
their investments should have been generating, interest on the losses and
legal fees.
A procedure has been established for the resolution of stockbroker/customer
disputes in an efficient and economical manner through arbitration. Stockbrokers
and brokerage firms are subject to binding arbitration of complaints regarding
customer accounts. This provides the opportunity for defrauded customers to
present their claims before an impartial panel of arbitrators whose decision
will be binding on all the parties.
Stockbrokers and brokerage firms have certain obligations and duties to their
customers. And investors have a right of recourse if their account has been
abused or if they have been defrauded by an investment advisor. If you believe
that you may have been the victim of an unscrupulous stockbroker call Arthur
