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

We have the skills and resources to help clients recover their investment losses from unauthorized trading.

Your broker is not allowed to make trades without your prior permission. If your broker bought or sold securities in your account, without proper authorization, you could have an unauthorized trading claim.

It is important to understand that even if you did provide your broker with authorization to make trades on your behalf, your broker cannot misuse or exceed this authority. Due to the level of trust you place in your broker, he or she owes you certain legal duties. Therefore, your broker is not allowed to make unsuitable trades or unauthorized trades and the brokerage firm may be held liable for any financial damages you suffered.

If your broker has engaged in unauthorized trading and you have experienced financial loss as a result, contact an experienced Ohio broker fraud lawyer at the law firm of Meyer Wilson. Receiving your free case evaluation is as easy as calling toll-free 866.827.6537 or local 614.224.6000 or filling out our online form.

What You Need to Know About Unauthorized Trading Claims

When it comes to unauthorized trading claims, you have to show the following:
• The unauthorized transactions took place
• You did not grant your broker prior permission to make these trades
• You suffered financial loss due to the unauthorized transactions

Unauthorized trading cases are generally handled in mandatory securities arbitration before the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). That means your case will most likely not be taken to court.

As you consider pursuing an unauthorized trading claim against your Ohio broker or brokerage firm, you need to educate yourself on what to look for in an attorney.
