SEC Investigations/Securities Fraud

Former SEC Staff Members Providing the Insight You Need

Investigations conducted by the Securities and Exchange Commission are detailed and thorough. Officers, directors or others facing allegations of insider trading need a law firm that brings not only legal experience to the table, but also a unique point of view of the industry. Also, victims of financial fraud and bad trades due to an unethical broker or financial adviser require the same level of in-depth advocacy.

At the law office of Cooke Kobrick & Wu LLP, attorneys Christopher C Cooke and Jeffrey W. Kobrick bring experience as partners in our firm and former enforcement attorneys with the SEC. That level of insight into how the SEC works is invaluable when reputations and hard-earned money are at stake.

Representing plaintiffs and defendants in securities fraud claims provides us with a rare perspective on how the SEC establishes its cases and how to defend against SEC enforcement actions. Contact our firm at 650-917-8045. We have two San Jose-area offices and a San Francisco-area office in the Silicon Valley to help you.

The Consequences of Securities Fraud

Accusations of securities fraud carry severe penalties for industry professionals. The allegation itself can quickly end a career. Conversely, unethical conduct involving account churning and bad trades can leave a financially stable individual struggling to make ends meet. For instance, we help victims of financial fraud who placed trust in ponzi schemes involving investments or foreign currency exchange. When investment advisors violate the trust of their clients, the clients' losses can be devastating.

Advocacy for Both Brokers and Clients in Securities Fraud Claims

Whether you are a plaintiff or defendant in a securities fraud court case or arbitration, we will provide aggressive advocacy and fight for the best outcome for you. We also represent companies and individuals investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. At Cooke Kobrick & Wu LLP, we get to the facts of the case. While emotions may run high, evidence is key in prevailing with your claim or defense. The insight of our partners means that you have an added advantage before entering the courtroom or dealing with the SEC.
