If your broker acts negligently or illegally and you lose money as a result, the brokerage firm may be held liable. Brokerage firms are supposed to ensure that brokers are properly trained and that they have the necessary licenses. In the event that the brokerage firm didn't do one of these things, you could have an Ohio failure to supervise claim. This type of claim requires an extensive investigation. Our law firm has the resources to handle these cases.
