Sample Cases/Situations of Fraud
It’s not easy for an investor to determine whether or not they were a victim of fraud until they speak to an attorney experienced in the securities and insurance industry. Often investors will accept losses in their brokerage accounts, portfolios or annuity contracts as bad luck or their own fault, but they should not. If you had losses in the above and/or if any of the following match your situation then call the Securities Law Firm of Menzer & Hill, P.A. We’re dedicated to assisting investors in the recovery of their losses as a result of fraud and the misdeeds of their brokers.
Did you experience any of these or other situations?
- I told my broker I needed more income.
- I bought an investment but it’s not on my monthly statement.
- I didn’t buy these securities.
- My statement lists margin or debit interest. I don’t know what that is.
- My broker manages or trades my account for me.
- My stocks are so-called pink sheets, bulletin board or other low priced-securities.
Menzer & Hill, P.A. is truly dedicated and devoted to making sure that the average investor is protected and represented against the abuses of Wall Street.
