Scott Silver, Silver Law Group’s managing partner, was interviewed by the South Florida Business Journal about the lawsuits his firm has filed on behalf of investors in Coral Gables Asset Management, a Miami hedge fund owned by David Coggins that he is alleged to have misappropriated money from. David Coggins told investors and potential investors that he had a successful hedge fund. He backed up his claims with independent auditors reports that showed millions in assets under management and a record of consistently outperforming the market. Now Coggins’ statements are alleged to have been false and misleading, and it appears that he spent hundreds of thousands of investor dollars on BMW car payments, shopping, travel, and his divorce attorney.Scott Silver, Silver Law Group’s managing partner, was interviewed by the South Florida Business Journal about the lawsuits his firm has filed on behalf of investors in Coral Gables Asset Management, a Miami hedge fund owned by David Coggins that he is alleged to have misappropriated money from.

Miami-Based David Coggins Accused of Perpetrating Alleged Securities Fraud Silver Law Group is continuing to investigate and has now filed several lawsuits on behalf of victims of an alleged hedge fund fraud perpetrated by David Coggins, who investors claim operated a bogus hedge fund named Coral Gables Capital, LP and/or Coral Gables Asset Holdings, LP. Coggins managed these “funds” through his company Coral Gables Asset Management, LLC. Coggins has spent the last few years soliciting investments for his hedge fund, which investors now contend was a total fraud through which Coggins stole investors’ funds. Among other things, in Silver Law Group’s pending cases, investors have alleged: Coggins contacted prospective investors by sharing fake marketing materials and performance data which made Coggins’ fund, Coral Gables Capital and/or Coral Gables Asset Holdings, seem as if it was generating substantial returns over the past few years. Coggins even created fake audit reports and a compliance manual intended to dupe investors into believing they were dealing with a legitimate, established hedge fund with millions in assets under management.Miami-Based David Coggins Accused of Perpetrating Alleged Securities Fraud

The SEC’s Division of Enforcement’s Retail Strategy Task Force and Office of Investor Education and Advocacy (OIEA) have released an investor alert encouraging investors to be careful when investing in offerings that are “broadly advertised”. Did you invest with an unregistered stockbroker? Investments take many forms; many securities are investments other than stocks listed on a national exchange. Over the last decade, some of the largest Ponzi schemes in America were assisted by unregistered financial advisors selling unregistered securities. While investments which are not directly tied to the stock market may seem attractive at first, many of these investments are still high risk and are being sold under false pretenses. Ponzi schemes targeting unsophisticated investors seeking conservative investments still dominate our headlines and are frequently perpetrated by those who seek to hide behind exemptions from registration or compliance with the federal securities laws.The SEC’s Division of Enforcement’s Retail Strategy Task Force and Office of Investor Education and Advocacy (OIEA) have released an investor alert encouraging investors to be careful when investing in offerings that are “broadly advertised”.
