Re: investment law
This sounds like a ponzi scheme or unregistered securities case. In both of these situations you may bring an action for the unregistered sale of a security against the broker. More importantly the firm that the broker works for may be held liable under Ohio securities law if it failed to properly supervise the broker. Ohio law also allows the award of attorney fees, costs and interest for the unregistered sale of a security. My firm handles many of these cases every year throughout the country.
