Why Should You Hire a Securities Lawyer?
Your New Jersey securities attorney understands just how much investment misconduct affects victims. They protect your legal rights and recover losses based on investment misconduct. Your lawyer offers support in many areas, including:
Investigating Your Case
It is not enough to say you are the victim of investment misconduct. Your lawyer takes the next steps, evaluating your case and explaining what to do next. They address your legal concerns and questions and help you proceed with securities arbitration or mediation if warranted.Â
Crafting Your Argument
Your legal strategy plays a key role in your case’s success. To prepare your argument, your lawyer considers the facts of your case and your proof. They want your argument to compel a liable party to offer a fair settlement or to prove to an arbitration panel that you should receive compensation.Â
Teaching You About Securities Laws
The chances of winning a securities fraud case depend on the strength of your argument, among other factors. Your attorney understands securities laws and how they apply to your situation. They share their legal knowledge and insights with you and help you make informed decisions during your case proceedings.Â
Representing You in Securities Arbitration
You wonder if legal representation is required in securities arbitration. Generally, it is in your best interests to work with a securities lawyer serving New Jersey if you move forward with this option. Securities arbitration is incredibly complex.
If you have an attorney on your side, you are well-equipped to be in a better position to get an arbitration panel to rule in your favor.Â
The team at Meyer Wilson focuses on restoring your financial security and leveling the playing field against the Wall Street machine. Unfortunately, if your broker or adviser was not involved in your investment into a pump and dump, crypto, or other fraudulent scheme, it is extremely unlikely that our securities lawyers can help with your specific situation.
What to Expect During Your New Jersey Securities Case
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has a standard process to file an arbitration or mediation claim. A securities attorney serving New Jersey submits your claim promptly. They explain arbitration and mediation in detail so you can evaluate these options for your case.Â
Arbitration is similar to the process of going to court. You bring your case in front of a panel of one to three arbitrators, and they make a decision that is typically final and binding.
Alternatively, mediation is voluntary. You and other parties involved in your case work with a mediator in the hopes of coming to terms on a settlement.Â
Your attorney helps you prepare for FINRA arbitration or mediation. They collect evidence and find witnesses who can testify on your behalf and help you establish realistic expectations for your case.
When arbitration or mediation gets underway, you can feel confident that your lawyer is doing everything in their power to get the results you want.Â
Tips to Help You with Your Securities Case
Consult with a securities lawyer if you believe you are the victim of investment misconduct. Choose an attorney who has helped past clients achieve outstanding case results. This lawyer will prioritize your case and make the most of the opportunity to handle your legal matters.Â
Gather financial documents, emails, and other proof to support your argument. Your evidence makes a world of difference. Having a wide range of proof at your disposal can boost your chances of getting compensation that you can use to recover financially.Â
Take care of yourself and be cognizant of what your case entails. Your lawyer is your legal advocate and representative, and they want you to receive adequate compensation. Maintain open and honest communication with them as your case progresses. If you want legal advice or guidance at any time, your lawyer remains accessible.Â
