About Kons Law Firm
If you lost money with a financial advisor who sold you unsuitable investments or in an investment fraud, your only path to recovery is likely to pursue recovery of your losses through FINRA arbitration or securities litigation. That’s the core of our practice, and we are here to help.
Kons Law helps investors nationwide pursue recovery through securities arbitration and litigation. We make sure that your rights are represented and that you get the maximum possible recovery given your facts.
We know that FINRA arbitration can be stressful on investors, with aggressive brokerage firms and financial advisor insurance carriers that deny liability. The same goes for securities litigation when investors are trying to pursue recovery of their securities fraud-related losses.
If you hire us, you will always be able to speak to a highly experienced securities litigation attorney who knows the ins and outs of your case, and you will never be left in the dark about your case. We’ll be with you every step of the way.
