Senior Citizens Beware?

We work hard our entire lives and save. We hand over our savings to someone we believe is a fiduciary, and has better knowledge and expertise, particularly with respect to investments to wisely and conservatively invest our life-savings. Many of these individuals engage in stockbroker fraud or investment fraud and make false promises concerning your anticipated returns or income simply to obtain your investment business. People rely upon these false promises to make life decisions, take early retirement, and make withdraws from the Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) or 401k plans.

Others are made false promises and fraudulently induced to purchase variable annuities of equity index annuities, which in light of their age, are inappropriate and unsuitable investments for senior citizens.

At the end of the day, they find out that there money is all gone and their life-savings have been depleted based upon the misleading or fraudulent investment advice from their stockbroker or investment professional, and have suffered losses because their stockbroker sold them risky or aggressive investments, and failed to disclose risk. Moreover, they discover that their stockbroker broker sold them these securities, mutual funds, or variable annuities, to further the stockbrokers’ own interests, or the interest of their firm. Either way, you lose. Your savings have been depleted, you are uninsured, and at your age and station in like, are reasonably unemployable.

These injured investors have options and should contact a securities arbitration and investment fraud lawyer for a free consultation.

Choose your Lawyers Wisely.

While no special designation or certification as a specialist or certification in the field of practice in securities arbitration or investment fraud litigation has been granted or approved by any state or the American Bar Association, many lawyers hold themselves out as “Investment Fraud Lawyers” or “Securities Arbitration Lawyers” when in fact, in some instances, these individuals have little or no experience in this area of the law, and are engaged in a variety of other endeavors including personal injury, workmen’s compensation, immigration, or medical malpractice. While no representation is made that the quality of legal services to be performed by us is greater than the quality of legal services to be performed by other lawyers, before you hire a securities arbitration lawyer or a lawyer professing to be an investment fraud lawyer, ask that person exactly how many stockbroker fraud, securities fraud or investment fraud cases that they have handled.
