San Diego Securities and Investment Fraud Lawyer
We all know that with investments, there are certain risks involved. The issue is whether a fiduciary was acting in the best interest of the client when they made the investment recommendation, whether the risks were disclosed to the investor, and whether the investment was suitable based on the client's particular situation.

Unsuitable Investments
What constitutes a suitable investment depends on the facts and circumstances of each particular case. However, there are some patterns that may lead to an investigation or claim, including:
- Failure to diversify - putting all the client's eggs in one basket
- Involving the client in margin accounts
- Involving the client in high risk securities, especially if the client is elderly
- Breach of fiduciary duty
- Churning
- Failure to disclose material facts and risks
- Overcharges
- IPOs
- Putting clients in investments that have liquidity issues or concerns
- Investments in mortgage funds or mortgage notes
- Illegal investments
