A security is an investment instrument – a stock or bond, for instance. When individuals or organizations invest in securities, they do so with the hope of growing their money. However, unscrupulous individuals or corporations may try to trick investors into buying securities based on false information about companies, about an instruments’ earnings potential, or other factors. If you have been the victim of securities fraud or if you or your company are charged with securities fraud, you’ll want to consult a qualified securities fraud attorney for advice.

The New York securities fraud lawyers at the Law Offices of Ira S. Newman have a comprehensive understanding of the financial services industry and of the investment options it offers. Our attorneys recognize that regulations applicable to brokers and financial institutions are complex, and that the investment process can seem intimidating and confusing to some investors.

It is that very complexity that fraud perpetrators rely on, gambling on the possibility that investors may not fully examine offerings before they purchase them. They may add time pressure, convincing the investor that a buying decision must be made rapidly if the promised returns are to be realized.
