Investors May Recover Losses in Lehman Principal Protection Notes

Many investors were sold structured products called "principal protection notes" issued by Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc.  These products may have been unsuitable, or not appropriate, for the investor, and the risks of the product may have been misrepresented as well, including misrepresentations that the products had "low risk."

Holders of the notes, that are now virtually worthless, may have options to attempt to recover their losses other than the bankruptcy court handling Lehman's case.  Those investors sold the products by brokerage firms may have claims against the brokerage firm if such sale was unsuitable, or made through material misrepresentations and omissions.  In these situations, investors may pursue their claims through arbitration before FINRA Dispute Resolution.

The Beck Law Firm, LLC represents investors who have been the victim of stockbroker misconduct and fraud.  If you believe you've been the victim of broker fraud, contact Joel Beck today for a brief, complimentary  consultation at 678-344-5342.
