Silver Law Group represents investors in securities and investment fraud cases and has been retained to represent investors who have suffered losses in the energy markets, including investors who were solicited to purchase investments in oil, gas and energy, stocks, bonds, Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”) and funds. Many energy investments have collapsed in value in the past year leaving investors with substantial losses in concentrated positions of speculative investments. Silver Law Group has been retained to represent investors who were sold unsuitable investments or were misled by their financial advisors or stockbrokers into believing that oil and gas investments were safe for their retirement income. In many cases, financial advisors solicited clients to purchase “overconcentrated” positions in oil and gas stocks promising that these investments offered a high yield with limited risk.
Many retired investors and those seeking income were sold oil and gas energy MLPs, bonds, stocks and funds which may not be suitable for conservative or moderate risk investors. These investments may have violated the suitability rule imposed by the Financial Regulatory Authority, which prohibits unsuitable sales of investments to customers.
