    How We Help You Recover

    1. Analyze Investment Activity
      We review your portfolio, trades, and communications to identify red flags, excessive fees, or misconduct.
    2. Hold Parties Accountable
      We pursue claims against advisors, brokers, firms, and any third parties involved in the scheme.
    3. Recover Your Losses
      We seek restitution through arbitration, settlement, or litigation—depending on what’s best for your case.
