California Annuity Lawyer

Understanding How Annuities Work

Annuities are essentially investment products that return income payments over an extended period of time. A large up-front lump sum is often required to start a fixed or variable annuity, and the payout is generally intended to support individuals through retirement. This type of insurance product can be especially beneficial in the event that other retirement investments run out. Since annuities require a substantial up-front cost, the commissions can be quite high for those who facilitate their purchase. Unethical professionals often encourage the purchase of annuity through misrepresentation and omission of the costs associated with the investment, or the terms of the agreement or encourage investors into purchases of questionable suitability.

Annuity losses are a common basis for securities litigation, securities arbitration or securities mediation. California investment fraud lawyer Jonathan W. Evans represents public investors who have experienced losses in their annuities due to negligence, fraud or other types of misconduct, and can provide valuable insight in terms of disputing these losses in the pursuit of recovery. Our firm is highly skilled in recognizing investment losses and working closely with investors to prove unethical practices.
