We’re proud to share that David P. Meyer and Courtney M. Werning, attorneys at Meyer Wilson Werning, will soon be leading a continuing legal education (CLE) presentation designed to help other attorneys better understand and identify investment fraud.
The virtual seminar—hosted by the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association—is titled “The Smart Lawyer’s Guide to Investment Fraud: Red Flags, Scams, and Legal Remedies.” It’s scheduled for September 25, 2025, and will educate lawyers on how to recognize financial misconduct and what legal steps victims can take to recover their losses.
Why Investment Fraud Education Benefits Everyone
Every year, billions of dollars are lost to investment fraud—from Ponzi schemes and crypto scams to unauthorized trading and misrepresentation. These schemes can wipe out retirement savings and cause lasting emotional and financial harm to individuals and families.
In this presentation, David and Courtney will be sharing their decades of experience with attorneys from all practice areas, helping them better protect their clients, loved ones, and communities from falling victim to these kinds of scams.

What David Meyer and Courtney Werning Will Be Teaching
The program will cover:
-
Common warning signs of investment fraud
-
Real-life case examples of fraud and recovery
-
Legal options available to victims, including securities arbitration and other remedies
-
The evolving responsibilities of financial professionals—and what happens when those duties are violated
While the session is designed for attorneys, the issues being discussed are highly relevant to everyday investors. The more the legal community understands about financial misconduct, the better equipped they are to support victims and hold wrongdoers accountable.
