Investment Fraud
Attorneys Who
Protect Your
Future

Investment fraud claims in Alabama must be filed within 2 years under Ala. Code § 8-6-19. Alabama’s contributory negligence rule has limited application in investment fraud cases because liability centers on the broker or adviser’s deceptive conduct rather than the investor’s decisions. The Alabama Securities Act covers Ponzi schemes and churning, and many claims proceed through FINRA arbitration, and Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys represents investment fraud victims across Alabama.

What to Know Before Hiring an Investment Fraud Attorney

Our investment fraud FAQ explains securities claims, SEC violation lawsuits, and when to call an investor loss recovery attorney for stock fraud litigation support.

This is a great question. Red flags include unexplained losses, unauthorized trades, or promised returns that seem too good to be true. If your advisor isn’t being forthright about your investments, pressures you to make quick decisions, or your account statements don’t look quite right? It’s time to seek legal help, like Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys. Our team can help you dig deeper and protect your interests. The bottom line is to always trust your gut. If something feels wrong, it probably is.

Ponzi schemes usually involve complicated financial structures and a lot of victims. Our attorneys have specific Ponzi scheme experience, which makes it easier to walk through the legal maze and maximize your recovery. At Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys, we pride ourselves on having professionals in various fraud types, so you can get the specialized knowledge your case needs.

Yes! Contracts don’t give anyone the right to commit fraud. If you’ve been misled or manipulated, you have rights, no matter what kind of paperwork you signed. Our attorneys will cut through the legal smokescreens to expose fraudulent behavior and hold wrongdoers accountable.

You have a few options, depending on the details of your claim. They can range from filing a complaint with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) to pursuing a lawsuit for breach of fiduciary duty (otherwise known as legal responsibilities). Our job as your attorneys is to prove the misrepresentation and show the impact it had on your investments. We’ll help gather evidence, figure out exactly how much you lost, and determine the best course of action to get you compensated.

Courts take these cases seriously, and there are significant penalties for the parties involved. Our focus is on proving that the deception was on purpose and then tracking the money trail. These cases can be complicated, usually involving multiple parties and jurisdictions. Our team is known for building strong cases that stand up in court, ultimately getting you the best possible outcome.

Not necessarily. Filing with the SEC can be helpful, but you don’t have to do it in order to file a lawsuit. In fact, sometimes it’s better to take private action first to protect your interests. Our legal professionals will let you know the best strategy for your specific situation, whether that involves regulatory complaints, private lawsuits, or both.

We’ll have to prove that false promises were made, and that pressure tactics or exploitation of trust were used against you. Our attorneys will help gather evidence like communications, financial records, and witness statements, all of which help show that you were manipulated. Our team understands the psychology behind these schemes and will build a strong case that shows you were victimized, not just a willing participant.
