As a securities attorney and the managing principal of Meyer Wilson, I have dedicated my career to protecting the rights of individual investors. For 25 years, I have successfully represented over 1,500 investors across the country and my law firm has recovered over $350 million in verdicts and settlements. I am the author of The Investor Protector, a #1 best seller on Amazon that exposes the tactics and consequences of fraudulent financial advisors.I believe that the vast majority of financial advisors are honest, do good work, and comply with the duties they owe their clients. Unfortunately, a small percentage of advisors who engage in misconduct cause tremendous harm to their clients. Early in my career, I was hired by a retiree whose Prudential broker liquidated his retirement portfolio without his authorization. The broker illegally liquidated millions of dollars in the retirement accounts of over 200 retirees over a three-day period. I filed the class action against Prudential when I was three years out of law school. After fighting through several years of aggressive Wall Street defense tactics, my team and I won a $260 million jury verdict against Prudential. Following the appeals, my clients recovered all their investment losses and their attorneys’ fees. That was the case where I discovered my passion for advocating for investor protection. My firm is nationally recognized as a leader in investor claims and class actions, with offices across the country. We have earned the highest peer ratings and accolades, including an AV-Preeminent Rating from Martindale-Hubbell, a Tier 1 Best Law Firm designation from U.S. News, and multiple listings in The Best Lawyers in America, including me being selected as a “Lawyer of Year” multiple times in my practice area and location.I have been elected president of two large trial lawyer associations; the Ohio Association for Justice as well as the Public Investors Advocate Bar Association, where I have advocated for the fairness and integrity of the securities arbitration and litigation process. In addition to my work with my clients and leading the law firm, I am also the Founder and CEO of MagniFee, an innovative wealthtech disruptor that is leveling the playing field for individual investors. MagniFee’s patent-pending web application empowers individual investors with easy access they did not have before to critical information they need about the comprehensive fees and costs they are paying for investment portfolio management.
