Margin Account Claims

 

Claims Against Your Brokerage Firm or Broker for Margin Borrowing Losses

Serving Clients Throughout Miami, Los Angeles, New York City and Nationwide

Margin accounts involve borrowing money from the brokerage firm and using the borrowed funds to buy securities. All of the securities in your account are held as collateral against the loan, and the brokerage firm reserves the right to sell any securities at any time to pay down the loan without ever contacting you. If your securities decline in value so far that they are worth less than the loan owed to the brokerage firm, you can even end up owing the brokerage firm a substantial sum even after all of your securities are sold.

If you have suffered losses due to margin borrowing, contact a securities arbitration lawyer at Dimond Kaplan & Rothstein in Miami. We represent clients all over South Florida and the United States in stockbroker misconduct claims.

It is one thing for a sophisticated investor to borrow money to purchase securities. It is another thing for a broker to recommend margin borrowing to risk-averse investors who are not aware of the risks of margin borrowing. Our lawyers have extensive experience handling margin loss claims.
