Defending Customer Claims
Financial advisors can face lawsuits from clients who are dissatisfied with the performance of their investments. These disputes often involve allegations of suitability issues, breach of fiduciary duty, or breach of contract, and they can threaten both professional reputations and financial stability.
Matasar Jacobs defends advisors in customer disputes before FINRA, the American Arbitration Association, and other arbitration forums. We assess the strength of each claim, conduct thorough investigations to uncover weaknesses in the customer’s case, and provide aggressive representation designed to reduce or eliminate financial exposure.
Our attorneys are particularly experienced in cases involving complex financial products, including options strategies, structured life settlements, and both fixed and variable annuities. With deep knowledge of financial products and a practical defense approach, we work to protect our clients’ interests while minimizing the disruption these claims can cause to their careers and practices.
