Miami Financial Adviser Fraud Attorney

Fraud occurs when a false statement or an omission of material fact is made by a financial advisory or the brokerage firm; it was known by the financial advisor to be false at the time the statement was made; the statement or omission was made for the purpose of inducing the customer to act in reliance thereon; the customer took action in reliance on correctness of the representation or omission; and resulting damage occurred.

Often times financial advisers intentionally make a false statement or omit a material fact in order to sell a customer a product and obtain a commission. For example, Carlson & Associates handled a case where a broker wrote to a customer about silver and said that recent events “will cause the price of silver to skyrocket.” The broker also said, “Don’t be a fool and watch this play out without making you a fortune.” These were fraudulent statements made with the intent to induce the client to buy silver on margin, ultimately resulting in the total loss of the entire investment.
