Client Reviews
- "I was very pleased with Mr. Meyer’s handing of my arbitration claim. Throughout the process, I felt that I was treated with respect and I always appreciated the extra effort David Meyer and his staff put forth to recover the money my stockbroker had lost. They did a tremendous job and when it was over, David was able to get back a lot more money for me than I ever expected. I have kept the firm’s number handy and would tell anyone that has been a victim of stockbroker misconduct to contact Meyer Wilson." C.F., Ohio
- "Thankfully, we hired the law firm of Meyer Wilson - they skillfully guided us through the NASD (now FINRA) arbitration process and achieved an outstanding recovery for us. We do not know what we would have done without their help..."Mr. and Mrs. R.Springfield, Ohio
- "Mr. Meyer and his staff was always professional and responsive to my calls and they really took their time with me to review paperwork and make sure that I remained well informed throughout the process. I feel like Mr. Meyer not only helped me to recover my investment losses, but he also helped me to get justice for my late husband..." J.S., Ohio

Examples of Fiduciary Duty
Due to the high level of trust that is created between the broker and client, many courts have determined that brokers owe certain duties to their clients. Brokers and brokerage firms always have a duty to deal in good faith with investor clients, but many jurisdictions have held that they owe additional duties, as well. Some of these duties include:• Duty to place the client's interests ahead of the broker's or brokerage firm's interest;
• Duty to monitor the changing markets and the impact on the client's interest;
• Duty to act responsibly and with due care in serving the client's interests;
• Duty to advise the client on the potential benefits and risks involved with any recommendations; and
• Duty to keep the client informed of all transactions that affect the client's interest
