Illinois Investment Attorneys in Stockbroker Negligence

St. Charles Securities Lawyers against Stockbroker Negligence

One of the main duties a stockbroker should adhere to when working for investors, is providing suitable investment recommendations and putting the interest of their clients before their own. Similarly, a stockbroker should always discuss projected investments, by presenting important factual information regarding those investments and only making business transactions once a client has allowed authorization for them. If the above conditions have not been met, you may have a case of stockbroker negligence.

The securities attorneys at Higgins and Burke, P.C., have extensive investment knowledge and legal expertise in all matters pertaining to stockbroker misconduct. We have represented clients on cases involving financial loss as a result of Ponzi schemes, insurance abuses, churning, and various other forms of stockbroker fraud. One of our leading attorneys, John Burke, a former stockbroker himself, has firsthand knowledge about how to help investors protect their securities.
