Austin, Texas Investment Fraud Lawyer
Representing Central Texas Investors in Securities Litigation
You don't mess with other people's money.
The law office of John McDuff represents individuals or groups of investors in suits alleging misrepresentation or outright fraud in stock purchase and private offerings.
My practice also has defended stockbrokers in investment litigation, and corporate executives or directors facing civil actions for misleading investors. I likewise handle all related disputes over stock ownership, vesting of stock options, financing of investments or shareholder control issues.
I am a solo practicing lawyer in Austin with 20 years of experience in business litigation, representing clients in Travis County and Central Texas. Contact me at 512.457.1177 to discuss possible remedies if you lost a substantial sum through fraud or manipulations.
Securities Litigation
I seek client recoveries in every scenario:
- Corporations intentionally misleading shareholders (and brokers)
- Fraud in private offerings of "investment opportunities"
- Stock manipulation
- Broker misrepresentations
- Inappropriate investments
- Buying or selling without authority
The corporation issuing stock has a duty to reveal to potential investors the business plan, past performance, reasonable projections of profits and offsets, and known risks such as a competitor's new product. Failure to make key financial disclosures that may sway investor decisions is just as actionable as a material misrepresentation.
Whether you were defrauded by a stock broker or duped by corporate officials into sinking money into a losing venture, I can gauge whether you have legitimate grounds for reimbursement of losses and additional damages. Contact me online or call 512.457.1177. I return calls and e-mails promptly, if not immediately.
