Brent Adam Burns

The focus of our practice is the representation of individual and institutional investors in arbitrations and litigations involving claims of breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, mismanagement, stock fraud, suitability, unauthorized trading, negligence and churning. I also regularly represent those who work in the financial services regarding recruiting practices including issues relating to the Protocol for Broker Recruiting; non-solicit, non-compete and other restrictive covenants; customer privacy and other regulatory issues; best-practices for preserving a book of business through a transition; Form U5 negotiations; responding to FINRA inquiries; promissory notes; bonus disputes; team disputes; temporary restraining orders (TROs); expedited FINRA arbitrations; license transfers and related issues. I represent brokers, traders, senior managers and officers regarding employment disputes such as discrimination, unpaid bonuses, retirement programs, severance packages, and forfeiture-for competition clauses for unvested stock. I look forward to discussing your case with you.
