Failure to Execute Securities Orders

Though it can be difficult to determine if you have fallen victim to securities fraud, especially pertaining to failure to execute claims, the lawyers at Levin Papantonio can assist you in verifying your concern.

When you provide approval or direction, your investments professional is allowed "a reasonable time" to execute your securities orders. A claim may arise if your broker refused to sell or dissuaded you from selling specific securities after you gave him or her instructions to do so. This may also be considered breach of fiduciary duty.

If you provided your broker with an order to buy or asked your broker to sell a stock, or you had a stop loss order or something similar and your broker failed to execute it in a timely manner, you may have a claim against your broker for failure to execute securities orders. Your claim is strengthened if the stock you were attempting to sell lost significant value during the delay.
