Mississippi FINRA Attorneys

Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas Has A Securities Law Firm in Gulfport and Represents Mississippi Investors Against Brokerage Firms

If you are a Mississippi investor who is wondering whether your broker-dealer and their financial advisor played a part in causing your portfolio losses, you will want to speak with our knowledgeable Gulfport FINRA lawyers. We can help you determine whether you have grounds for filing a securities lawsuit against the firm.

Your broker-dealer and financial advisor should be registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), which has a forum where you would likely go to resolve your dispute. The reason for this is that when you agreed to the contract to work with your broker you also probably signed a clause in which you consented to resolve any disagreements through FINRA arbitration.

Although less costly, complex, and time-consuming than going to court, the arbitration process has its own set of rules. This is why it is important that you are represented by skilled FINRA arbitration attorneys that know how to navigate this forum and can obtain successful case outcomes for investors.

Why Hire Our Gulfport FINRA Lawsuit Attorneys?

One of the many key factors to know about filing your investor loss claim in FINRA arbitration is that once the arbitration panel issues its decision, any award—whether favorable for the investor or not—is likely final and there will be limited opportunity to appeal. This is all the more reason to make sure you have savvy Mississippi FINRA lawyers by your side from the start.

Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas can help you determine whether broker misconduct or negligence was involved in your investor losses and apprise you of the best course of legal action. Should we agree to work together, we will prepare your securities lawsuit for you, gather the necessary evidence, draft your statement of claim, submit your case to FINRA, and represent you before the panel of arbitrators.

How You Can Maximize Your Chances of Recovering Damages Caused by Broker Misconduct

Many securities arbitration cases end up resolved via settlement and mutual agreement. This is one more reason to have trusted Mississippi securities lawyers representing you.

If a settlement isn’t reached, then your claim will move through the entire arbitration process.

Generally, the outcome of your investor loss case will depend on the quality of your claim, the degree of alleged misconduct involved, the nature of the damages, the arbitrators are chosen, and the experience level of your legal team. Although we cannot guarantee that you will recover anything, more than 90% of the investors we have represented—and Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas have worked with thousands over the years—achieved full or partial financial recovery.
