Securities Fraud

Defense Against Charges of Securities Fraud in Pennsylvania Courts

When law enforcement suspects securities fraud, the Securities Exchange Commission is almost always the first step in investigating or prosecuting a case. Prompt defense action before the SEC can stop a criminal prosecution.

The criminal defense attorneys at The Henry Law Firm defend people under investigation by the SEC or the FBI, or facing criminal charges for securities fraud in Pennsylvania state courts or nationwide in federal court.

We have defended securities brokers with series 7, series 65 or series 11 licenses. We've defended certified financial planners, managers selling registered and unregistered securities, and companies accused of falsely reporting their earnings or misrepresenting their financial accounting.

If you believe you are being investigated by the SEC or the FBI, you do not have to wait for an arrest before you talk an attorney. Contact the Philadelphia law office of The Henry Law Firm — attorneys you can trust.

Early Intervention Can Yield the Best Results

We have worked on several internal securities fraud investigations, preventing an SEC complaint from turning into criminal charges. We have successful negotiated civil penalties rather than criminal charges and court.

We also represent clients — both individuals and companies — in grand jury proceedings about SEC violations or securities fraud complaints. We advise and prepare clients who will be appearing before the grand jury.

Bringing Expert Resources to the Table

Our attorneys know how to build a strong defense in securities fraud cases. We work with an ex-SEC compliance officer and use forensic accountants and computer experts when these resources are needed to help us investigate and prove your case.
