10 Warning Signs
you may have a Problem with your stockbroker,
financial planner or investment advisor.

You lose more money than you thought you were risking.

Investment losses negatively impact your retirement or or lifestyle

Your broker won't return your calls

Your broker is good at telling you what to buy, but not what to sell

You are losing money in an IRA or retirement account

Your broker has more excuses than ideas

Your broker suggests an annuity for your IRA account

"Risk" is never part of the conversation

Your broker says it's "safe", but your gut says differently

Your "investment professional" loses a lifetime of your savings

Investors Recovery Service specializes in investment and stock loss recovery through securities arbitration. Our clients’ stockbrokers typically violated provisions of the Rules of Fair Practice established by the FINRA (National Association of Securities Dealers). These rules were established in order to protect investors as well as the integrity of the marketplace.

Established in 1991, our offices which are located in the San Francisco bay area in Novato, CA have successfully represented over 1000 investors through securities dispute resolution.

On average, we obtain arbitration awards for our clients that are more than twice what the national average is for PIABA attorneys.

Nationally, PIABA attorneys have an average recovery of  13.6%*. Please keep in mind that this number represents all claims that went to hearing, all winners and all losers combined. It is also less than half of what Investors Recovery Service obtained for its clients in arbitration since 1991.

So, if you are thinking that you need an experienced PIABA attorney, think again. Our experience and our results suggest larger settlements and larger arbitration awards. It's your money - select wisely who to trust because you only get one chance in securities fraud arbitration.

There is no fee to review a potential claim and no up-front retainer. We will spend whatever time is necessary, at our expense, to insure that we have carefully evaluated the reasons behind your losses, and every realistic avenue of recovery. 

We represent customers of full service stock brokerage firms who believe they were the victims of:

  • unauthorized trading
  • unsuitability
  • misrepresentation
  • bad advice
  • stock broker fraud
  • excessive trading (churning)
  • stock broker misconduct
  •  limited partnerships
  • annuities
  • failure to follow customers instructions
  • over concentration of one or two securities.

We are also specialists in online brokerage errors, including:

  • delayed executions
  • incorrect trades
  • false trades
  • improper sellouts.

We have recent arbitration awards that clearly demonstrate online brokers may be held responsible for any of the above, and further, they are responsible (not the customers) for their computer breakdowns, even if their customer agreements may state otherwise.
