Why are Ohio securities fraud cases often handled in arbitration?

 

A: Almost all investment and brokerage firms have new clients sign an agreement stating that conflicts must be handled in securities arbitration, not in court. If you signed paperwork with your investment firm before losing your money, it is likely that you agreed to this form of dispute resolution.

During arbitration, the brokerage firm will employ the assistance of sophisticated lawyers, who will defend the firm’s position. It is therefore imperative that you have an experienced attorney on your side, looking out for your interests.

While arbitration is different in many ways from a courtroom trial, the Ohio securities fraud attorneys with the law firm of Meyer Wilson have a long history of winning favorable outcomes for our clients.
