Understanding Securities Law
Securities law is a specialized field that regulates the issuance, trading, and oversight of financial instruments such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. Securities law ensures fair markets and protects investors and businesses from fraud and misconduct.
Governed by federal laws, as well as state regulations, securities law covers a broad range of issues that require expert legal guidance.
Key Areas of Securities Law Include
- Securities Fraud: Misleading or deceptive practices that harm investors or manipulate markets.
- Insider Trading: Illegally trading securities using confidential, non-public information.
- Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring adherence to rules set by agencies like the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission).
- Investment Disputes: Conflicts involving investors, brokers, or financial advisors.
- Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A): Legal challenges tied to corporate transactions and restructurings.
Navigating these areas can be daunting, but our team at Varnavides Law has the knowledge and experience to guide you through every step.

Securities Litigation and Arbitration
We represent individuals and entities throughout the United States involved in disputes with their financial professionals. Many of these disputes are typically resolved through arbitration proceedings filed with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).
The types of claims we bring on behalf of our investors include:
Fraud and Misrepresentation:
We help clients who have suffered losses due to fraudulent activities or misrepresentation by investment professionals. This can include cases of deceptive practices such as Ponzi schemes, false advertising, and other forms of securities fraud.
Breach of Fiduciary Duty:
We advocate for investors who have been harmed by brokers, financial advisors, or other fiduciaries who have failed to act in the clients’ best interests. This is a common issue in securities disputes.

Our law firm assists clients who have been advised to invest in products that do not align with their risk tolerance, financial goals, or investment needs.
