Securities Litigation

Don’t let our size fool you:  Manchel & Brennan also has extensive experience representing broker-dealers and insurance companies and their financial advisors and agents in customer dispute cases.  Perhaps more importantly, our track record in this area is nothing short of remarkable.  Recent examples include:  obtaining the severance and dismissal of a multi-party, multi-million dollar statement of claim; obtaining a Respondents’ Award, including an order of expungement; and obtaining the dismissal of a failure to supervise claim even though the claim proceeded against the Respondent broker.  From assessing exposure to arbitrating the merits of the claim, Manchel & Brennan makes sure that each matter is handled with an eye on both the arbitration at hand and the Member’s broader corporate concerns.
