Securities Class Actions
Securities Law Class Actions, Investigations and Alerts
Securities class action lawsuits are filed on behalf of a large number of investors who suffered financial losses in a certain security or stock. Oftentimes, securities class actions are initiated due to fraudulent stock manipulation, the distribution of false or misleading information to shareholders, or other violations of securities laws. Through the filing of securities class action lawsuits, a group of investors have the opportunity the recover compensation for losses resulting from fraudulent activity.
Securities fraud occurs when a corporation misleads their investors about the value of their securities by manipulating accounts, misstating earnings or making other misrepresentations which result in an increase in stock price. Eventually, the fraud will be detected, and investors who suffered damages as a result may have legal recourse through a securities class action. Some common allegations posed in securities lawsuits include pricing violations, churning and improper execution of trades.
If you suspect you have been subjected to a form of securities fraud, you may have legal recourse to recover any resulting damages. To learn more about your legal rights as an investor, fill out our free, no obligation case review form.
