“As an attorney for investors I enjoy the satisfaction of doing the right thing. I meet people whose lives have been dramatically changed because of broker misconduct; and a successful claim and recovery can give them back their lives. That’s my reason for doing what I do.” – Securities Fraud Attorney Mark A. Tepper.
Seniors, who frequently are on fixed incomes and depend heavily on investments, can become targets for aggressive money managers promising higher returns through alternative investments.
“Investors should be very wary of aggressive financial advisors who promise stellar returns on investments, while pushing high-fee financial products where commissions and excessive trading can eventually drain a portfolio,” Mr. Tepper advises.
If a broker does not tell you the full story, gives false information or recommends something that isn’t right for you, then that could be misconduct. As a consumer, be alert for and recognize “red flags,” such as unexpected losses in your account. Ask your broker how he or she is compensated, and what are the costs and risks associated with your broker’s recommendations.
Breitburn Energy Partners LP
For example, investors who were inappropriately recommended oil and gas investments like Breitburn Energy Partners LP may be eligible to file claims for recovery against their broker.
