I need to review your documents to determine whether you have to go to court or arbitration. You may not have a choice. Often times financial advisors do not have your interest at heart, and sell you bad investments. I can help you look at your investments and understand what your financial advisor may have done wrong. I am also happy to look at possibly representing you. Please send me an email.

Best,

It's hard to predict whether you'll do better in court or in arbitration. The differences could include cost, quickness, and quality of justice. Going to court is the only way to have a jury decide questions of fact. In arbitration, you may have more choice of arbitrator than you'd have choice of judge. Arbitration might be done closer to home, or on a schedule you can control. Ultimately, however, you may not have a choice. A lot of contracts of this type require arbitration of disputes. Some make no provision for arbitration, in which case you're obliged to go to court unless the other party also consents to arbitration.

First, you need to determine IF you have grounds to make a claim, and whether you are bound to the securities broker 'claim' rules and arbitration. Generally lawsuit are preempted by those rules, and the contracts and agreements you had to sign to get your account opened. Simply losing money is not necessarily grounds for legal action, lots of people lose money in the market without recourse; you would have to prove illegal conduct or violations by the broker of his duties.

After reading that, if you believe you have grounds to make a claim, feel free to contact me to discuss the facts and basis of your claims.
