Broker Misrepresentation

According to the policies outlined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), all stockbrokers, brokerage firms, and investment advisors must provide clients with appropriate financial advice when it comes to their stocks and investments.  When investment professionals misrepresent material facts, or fail to disclose information about material facts, they can be held liable for any losses their clients incur. 

This means that if a client experiences stock or investment losses due to misrepresentation of facts by their investment advisor, the client can take legal action to recover their losses by filing a lawsuit against their investment advisor.

Often times, a stockbroker, brokerage firm, or investment advisor may misrepresent material facts by omitting information or by not disclosing risks that may be associated with an investment option to the client.  In both instances, the investment professional can be held liable if the client experiences losses because the professional failed to give the client fair advice, which is a clear violation of SEC policies.

After a client has suffered stock or investment losses due to broker misrepresentation, it is always advisable that the person seek legal counsel from a skilled securities attorney.  In some cases, the person may be able to recover their losses by filing a lawsuit against their investment advisor if broker misrepresentation can be proven. 

The best way to fight broker misrepresentation is by working with a reputable attorney who can protect your best interests and ensure maximum recovery of your losses.
