Houston Investment Loss Recovery Law Firm
Fighting For Texas Investors Against Their Broker-Dealers Since 1990
For over 30 years, Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas (investorlawyers.com) has represented investors throughout Lone Star State from both our Houston headquarters and our Dallas law office. We help retail investors, retirees, seniors, high-net-worth individual investors, and institutional investors in pursuing damages for their investment losses caused by broker fraud or misconduct.
Suffering financial losses can lead to devastating consequences. If they could have been avoided—or lessened—were it not for the careless or wrongful actions of your stockbroker, you may be able to sue the brokerage firm responsible for damages.
Our trusted Houston investor loss attorneys represent investors in recovering restitution and, in some cases, punitive damages involving all kinds of financial products, such as:
- Oil and Gas investments
- Annuities
- Private placements
- High-yield junk bonds
- Retirement accounts
- Structured products
- Stocks and bonds
- Real estate investment trusts (REITs)
- Non-traded real estate investment trusts (Non-traded REITs)
- Master limited partnerships
While some fluctuation of loss and gain can be expected in customers’ brokerage accounts—it would be wise to be highly suspicious if your investment adviser came to you promising “no-risk” while guaranteeing you high returns—when investment losses are caused by some type of broker negligence or wrongdoing, you may be able to file a lawsuit against them for:
- Unsuitable investment recommendations
- Misrepresentations and omissions
- Elder financial abuse
- Overconcentration
- Unauthorized trading
- Churning
- Selling away
- Failure to supervise
- Breach of contract
- Breach of fiduciary duty
- Much more.

Investor Loss Claims: How Do You Know If You Should Sue Your Broker?
The first step is to contact our Houston investment loss lawyers to request your free, no-obligation case consultation. It can be hard to know whether your portfolio losses or financial product failure losses involved wrongdoing or carelessness on your broker’s part. We can help you assess whether you have grounds for a FINRA lawsuit.
If you do have a reason for an investment loss recovery lawsuit, and we agree to work together, our Houston investor loss law firm will prepare and build a solid claim on your behalf, file your case in FINRA arbitration, and represent you before the panel of arbitrators. Throughout the whole process, you can count on receiving quality securities law representation and personalized attention. We know how life-altering it can be to sustain serious financial losses. It is one of the reasons we have built a Houston securities law firm focused exclusively on representing investors against unscrupulous or negligent broker-dealers and investment advisers.
Because we work on a contingency basis, you will only pay for our legal services if we recover anything for you. These fees will come from the award or settlement and never directly out of your own pocket.
