West Palm Beach Securities Arbitration & Litigation Lawyer
Rabin Kammerer Johnson represents investors and members of the public in claims against brokerage firms, investment advisors, and other investment professionals who have mismanaged their clients’ assets and caused investment losses. These claims are typically subject to mandatory arbitration before the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or FINRA.
- Brokerage Firms
- Churning and Excessive Trading
- Margin Claims
- Omitting or Misrepresenting Important Information
- Overconcentration
- Unsuitability
Filing a case with FINRA is not like filing a case in court. FINRA cases are not decided by judges or juries. Instead, FINRA cases are decided arbitrators, usually a panel of three. The parties select these arbitrators through a ranking process.
FINRA conducts arbitrations all over the United States and even in foreign countries. The arbitration is usually scheduled in a location close to the investor’s home.
Preliminary hearings are commonly conducted by telephone, and the final arbitration hearing takes place in person. The final arbitration hearing is conducted much like a trial. The lawyers make opening statements, call and cross-examine witnesses, and give closing statements. The arbitrators usually issue their decision in writing within 30 days of the final arbitration hearing.
