Single Mother Wins Investment Misconduct Arbitration
Philadelphia, PA (PRWeb) February 5, 2007 -- Catherine Humphrey-Bennett, attorney for Anapol Schwartz law firm recently obtained a six-figure settlement in an NASD arbitration case in favor of a single mother with three children who sustained heavy financial losses when her broker inappropriately churned and over-concentrated her account in technology securities.
"Brokers are obligated to carefully evaluate each client's investment goals to provide for adequate portfolio diversification," stated Humphrey-Bennett. "Concentration of a portfolio in any individual investment dramatically increases the risk of losses within that portfolio."
If a broker places the vast majority of a client's total investment holdings in one sector, and this sector declines significantly, the broker may be liable. Since all investors are unique, careful strategies must be used to properly diversify a portfolio. Failure to do so can result in liability when that portfolio sustains significant losses.
Attorneys Catherine Humphrey-Bennett, Joel Feldman, and Adam Green have obtained numerous awards and settlements on behalf of individual investors defrauded by their brokerage firms.
