Silver Law Group is comprised of a team of lawyers, accountants, investigators, and others who are singularly aligned to represent investors in securities fraud cases. We focus on three areas: class action litigation, stockbroker misconduct claims that frequently go to Federal Arbitration, and SEC whistleblower claims. We are particularly well-known for handling class action litigation relating to Ponzi schemes including claims against third-party professionals for aiding and abetting the scheme, such as commercial banks, auditors, law firms, and investment banks. We also frequently work in cooperation with SEC receivers and bankruptcy trustees in those kinds of cases.
In our numerous years of experience, many investors have relied on us to recover their lost investments, and they can attest to our work ethic, depth of knowledge, and tenacity in the face of tough opposition.
Scott Silver started as a Wall Street defense lawyer, where he represented many of the types of companies that we go after today. In 2000, he switched sides during what was referred to as “the tech wreck,” and began representing investors who were defrauded. One-hundred percent of the firm’s practice today is handling securities and investment fraud cases, and we do a great deal of lobbying on behalf of our clients to improve the federal securities laws and teach best investment practices.
Scott Silver is a highly respected voice in the world of securities and investment fraud litigation. He is the chairman of the Securities and Financial Fraud Group of the American Association of Justice (AAJ). He is also on the Board of Directors of the Public Investors Arbitration Bar Association (PIABA), which represents investors in claims against financial advisors. He is a passionate investor advocate and believes strongly in the work that we do here. Together, we have a wealth of experience in pursuing these kinds of claims, especially the class actions for violating the federal securities laws.
Scott is personally barred in New York and Florida. However: while lawyers generally need to be admitted to the courts in which they are practicing, securities fraud is a unique area of law that allows us to have a national practice and be admitted to the federal courts in many states on a pro hac basis, or work with local counsel if necessary to pursue these claims. Due to its highly technical nature and the complexity of these types of cases, it is important that we bring a wealth of institutional knowledge when representing clients. We have litigated Ponzi scheme, hedge fund, and publicly traded company frauds from New York to California, and have the privilege of having close friends and leaders of the bar in many of our biggest cities.
If you lost investments due to fraud and you wish to make a recovery – including from third-parties who aided or abetted the scheme – please call us at your earliest convenience. While past success does not guarantee future results, feel free to ask us about our experience handling similar types of cases and the work we have done for prior clients. Through our advocacy, you will learn why Silver Law Group has the best experience to handle your securities fraud lawsuit.
