Mutual Fund Fraud Attorneys
Representing Clients Throughout Miami, Los Angeles, New York City and Nationwide
Most investors understand mutual funds to be highly diversified investment vehicles with a high level of safety. Often, mutual funds are considered a good choice for retirement investment portfolios for those seeking a high level of income while preserving assets. Investors are warned, this reputation is not necessarily well deserved.
Some mutual funds subject investors to enormous levels of risk — and some mutual fund companies and brokerage firm tell investors this. But some do not. Still, other brokerage firms misrepresent risky mutual funds as those that are safe.

The securities fraud attorneys at Dimond Kaplan & Rothstein, P.A. (DKR) have represented a number of investors who lost money in mutual funds described to them as “an alternative to a money market account” (one of the safest investment vehicles available). Some of these mutual funds have lost 50%, 70%, and as much as 90% of their value.
DKR pursues unsuitable for their risk profile and without explaining the risks involved.
