For over 25 years, Silver Law Group has been representing investors in securities and investment fraud cases. A core part of our practice is representing investors in stockbroker misconduct cases which are generally administer by FINRA and hearings are held in major cities around the country. However, the current health crisis requires new policy and procedures to allow these cases to be heard without the need of an in-person hearing. We support FINRA’s actions especially because many elderly investors are the target of fraud, Ponzi schemes, unsuitable recommendations, and other misconduct which would prevent them from seeking justice because they cannot travel to a live hearing. Silver Law Group believes zoom hearings, similar to client meetings and other events can be held by zoom or other methods without damaging the securities arbitration process.For over 25 years, Silver Law Group has been representing investors in securities and investment fraud cases.
