About Jonathan
Biography
As experienced Los Angeles Securities Attorneys, we represent individuals, trusts, IRAs, pension plans, and estates in securities arbitration cases against stockbrokers, brokerage firms, and investment advisors. Our goal is to recover as much of the client's losses as the specific facts of the case and the law allow.
Our Firm takes pride in having represented numerous aggrieved investors who have suffered substantial economic loss as a result of one or more of the various types of broker misconduct:
- Negligence
- Suitability
- Failure to Supervise the Activity of a Customer Account
- Failure of the Brokerage Firm to Adequately Supervise the Broker
- Breach of Fiduciary Duty
- Misrepresentation and Fraud
- Overconcentration and Lack of Diversification
- Churning of an Account
- Purchase of inappropriate including annuities, variable life insurance and other securities.
- Hedge Fund Losses
Call our office today if you have experienced losses that you believe may have been caused by any of these forms of misconduct, or by any other act or omission which contributed to or caused the losses. We undertake representation of claimants on a contingency basis which means, of course, that if there is no recovery, there is no fee charged. Likewise, we do not charge any fee for a telephonic or office consultation. The facts of every case are different and not all market losses are recoverable. In addition, clients are responsible for filing fees and incidental costs, both of which vary based upon the amount of the claim.
Although our office is in the Los Angeles area, we currently represent or have represented clients from numerous other states and at least six foreign countries. As a respected Securities Attorney, Mr. Evans has been chosen by Los Angeles Magazine as a Southern California Super Lawyer in the field of Securities Litigation for 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010. Annually, “Super Lawyers” are selected by their peers based upon ethics, experience and reputation, representing the top 5% of their profession.
During your free consultation, we can discuss the details of any situation in which you believe:
- You have suffered losses due to the errors or omissions of your broker, whether intentional or negligent
- Your broker/brokerage has been promoting investment products (stocks, options, warrants, etc.) that were unsuitable for your investment objectives and risk tolerance
- Your account has been churned
- Your account has in some way been negligently handled
If you or someone you know in Southern California, throughout the country or worldwide needs the assistance of an experienced Los Angeles Securities Attorney, call Jonathan W. Evans today at begin_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting, or complete the contact form provided on this site to schedule your free consultation.
