Our Securities Litigation Defense Practice

Our attorneys possess broad experience in securities law, including issues related to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Securities and Exchange Acts of 1933 and 1934, state securities law, and common law.

Attorneys Hal Meeks and Jo Meeks are practicing arbitrators before FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, created upon the merger of the NYSE and the NASD). Arbitration services through Pursley Lowery Meeks are always handled by lawyers with direct experience in securities arbitration.

We offer securities litigation defense in a wide range of situations:

• Broker-dealer and stockbroker liability arbitration before FINRA or CFTA
• Claims against insurance salespeople
• ERISA claims
• Losses triggered by alleged fraudulent conduct
• Losses triggered by alleged misleading statements on financial disclosures or by issuer business decisions
• Regulatory actions in federal and state courts or before self-regulatory agencies
• State banking authority and SEC investigations or litigation
• Shareholder disputes
• Shareholders’ rights issues

We handle employment actions in the securities industry, including financial planner non-compete agreements and non-solicitation agreements. We represent brokers in cases involving employment and defamation issues, and we are always keenly aware of the issues that Securities and Exchange Commission investigators tend to emphasize.

Protecting your business standing and personal reputation are top priorities with us when defending you. To discuss representation before arbitration or securities litigation defense, please contact our law offices in downtown Atlanta.
