Generally, no. Stock fraud cases turn on some type of misrepresentation. Perhaps an investment option carried risks, and you failed to adequately disclose those risks to potential investors. Also, in order to achieve a conviction, the prosecution will be required to establish some sort of intent on your part, meaning that you made a representation with the intent to defraud. Because of the level of reliance on facts and minutia in these cases, our experienced stock fraud defense lawyers can challenge the intent element or even whether you misrepresented the facts altogether. If you or someone you love are facing stock fraud charges, consult an experienced defense attorney immediately. At Team Law, we have the experience and skills to help you.
