Birmingham Churning / Excessive & Unauthorized Trading Attorneys

Was Your Stockbroker “Churning” Your Account?

Brokerage firms and other advisors can only execute trades if you authorize them. Your investment advisor cannot override your risk tolerance or conduct trades to make extra commissions without your consent. If they do, the trade is unauthorized and you may have legal recourse to reverse it. If a broker trades frequently without regard to your bests interests – then the account may have been “churned” to generate excessive commissions for the representative.

Attorneys Fighting Back Against Excessive Trading

We will examine the trading history on your accounts and the fees you were charged to uncover patterns and specific instances of unwarranted or illegal trades:

  • Excessive trading (churning)
  • Unauthorized trading

If churning occurs, our lawyers can bring several types of claims on behalf of the wronged investor. Some of these include; failure to supervise and breach of the duty to recommend suitable investments. Proving that churning has occurred can be complicated, it often requires the assistance of a knowledgeable attorney. We can help – let our over135 years of combined experience work for you.
