Busting the “Net Out of Pocket” Myth

Your investor or broker has an obligation to act in a manner that is ethical and will benefit you. That is why you hired this individual and invested your money in the first place. When "net out of pocket" occurs, it can be a breach of fiduciary duty and there are a range of legal remedies that Mr. Evans can engage in to resolve this situation.

Through churning (excessive trading), unsuitable securities investments, unauthorized trades, failures to execute trades and other methods, financial losses can be significant. The firm's experience and commitment can assist those who have been harmed by a breach of contract, margin account abuse, risky over concentration on a given stock or industry and registration violations. Mr. Evans is also fully versed in illegal insider trading and how to protect your rights and seek justice in such matters.

Myth: Offsetting Principal Losses Via Investments Earned

Of note is that corporate securities law defense lawyers are highly skilled at protecting the best interests of their clients. The financial issues and state and federal laws and regulations are complex. It is imperative that you are represented by an attorney from Mr. Evan's firm who is highly accomplished and knowledgeable in this area of the law. A good example is known as the Net Out of Pocket (NOP) myth. This is the fiction that interest and dividends you earned on an investment may be utilized to offset principal losses. NOP is the argument that is routinely used by defense attorneys to try to limit the recovery of your losses. In many cases, with dedicated and experienced counsel, the NOP myth can be overcome.
