Investment Products

Each year, individual and institutional investors suffer financial losses because of securities fraud and the negligent actions of stockbrokers and investment firms. Since 1991, Maddox Hargett & Caruso, P.C. has represented the interests of individuals and entities in cases involving financial losses due to investment fraud, stockbroker misconduct or professional negligence. We are conducting investigations into certain investment products that were sold as low-risk, safe investments but instead turned out to be very risky for investors.
