Holding Financial Institutions Accountable for Losses in Complex & Risky Investment Products

Proven Track Record

We have a proven track record of successfully handling cases involving a variety of investment products, including but not limited to:

Non-Traded Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)

REITs, particularly non-traded ones, are often marketed as safe, income-producing investments. However, they can be illiquid, carry high commissions, and may involve undisclosed risks. We handle claims involving various REITs, including those where investors have struggled to recover losses from investments like Northstar Healthcare REIT, which has faced significant challenges, leaving many investors with substantial losses due to issues such as suspended distributions and declining share values. Our firm is adept at investigating the due diligence, sales practices, and disclosures (or lack thereof) associated with these complex products. Learn more about specific REIT claims here.

GWG Holdings (GWGH) L Bonds

Investors in GWG Holdings L Bonds have faced extreme uncertainty and significant losses following the company’s bankruptcy. These high-yield bonds were marketed to retail investors, often without adequate disclosure of the inherent risks, including the speculative nature of the life insurance policies securing them. If you invested in GWG L Bonds and have suffered losses, our attorneys can evaluate your situation and explore potential avenues for recovery against the brokerage firms that sold these risky investments. GWG Holdings Loss Recovery.

Structured Products

These are complex securities, often marketed with promises of principal protection or enhanced returns, but their performance is tied to underlying assets through intricate formulas. The complexity of structured notes, reverse convertibles, and other structured products can obscure their true risk, leading to unexpected losses for investors. We help investors who were not adequately informed about the risks, costs, and potential downsides of these sophisticated investments. Structured Product Loss Recovery.

Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) & Exchange Traded Notes (ETNs):

While some ETFs are straightforward, others, particularly leveraged, inverse, or volatility-linked ETFs and ETNs, carry substantial risks that may not be suitable for many retail investors. These products can experience rapid and significant losses, especially in volatile markets, if not properly understood and managed. If you’ve lost money in ETFs or ETNs due to unsuitable recommendations or misrepresentations, we can help.

Private Placements

Investments in private placements, like those potentially involving ICAP Equity or similar ventures, are generally restricted to accredited investors for a reason: they are often high-risk, illiquid, and lack the transparency of publicly traded securities. Brokerage firms must conduct thorough due diligence on these offerings and ensure they are suitable for an investor’s specific circumstances. We investigate claims where investors were inappropriately sold private placements or where the risks were not fully disclosed.
