If you are a securities professional or financial institution facing a FINRA investor claim and arbitration, Rob Herskovits and his Herskovits PLLC team deliver a very proactive defense throughout FINRA’s arbitration process.

When investors lose money in the market they too often search for a target for blame and too eager FINRA investors’ lawyers press them to seek damages, refunds, attorneys’ fees and more. We often see weak or false claims with an investor law firm hoping for a settlement.

In these cases, our proactive legal defense strategy can result in a very favorable settlement or ideally an early dismissal.
