Founder and managing partner of Silver Law Group, Scott Silver, was elected to the Board of Directors of the Public Investors Advocate Bar Association (PIABA) at the organization’s 2025 Annual Meeting in October. His ascension to the Board recognizes his decades of groundbreaking work representing individual investors in securities fraud cases.
The PIABA is an organization of attorneys who advocate for defrauded investors. Its purpose is to promote fair and accessible pathways for bilked investors to secure compensation from those who defrauded them. The organization was founded in 1990, and Mr. Silver became a member early in his career.
The organization also seeks to expand and protect investor rights and strengthen regulations and enforcement governing the conduct and ethics of investment advisors, financial institutions, securities and commodities brokerage firms, and hedge funds.
PIABA is a respected source of knowledge and advice. The group frequently comments on pending changes to law and regulations regarding securities, and proposes measures to expand investor rights. Its current priorities include establishing consumer protections in cryptocurrency transactions and reform of the investor advisor arbitration process.
Mr. Silver has spent much of his career representing institutional and individual investors in claims against investment advisors, brokers, financial institutions, accounting firms, and commodities firms. He is active in plaintiff-side class action litigation.
Mr. Silver frequently counsels receivers and trustees in matters regarding investor recovery in Ponzi scheme bankruptcy litigation. He is a compelling and entertaining speaker on matters relating to investment fraud and investor rights, and is always happy to represent investors with their claims, or expand the public’s knowledge of securities fraud in all its forms and best practices to avoid being a victim of a Ponzi scheme.
