Lax & Neville LLP, has been retained by investors who lost money in Lehman Brothers Principal Protected Notes ("Lehman Principal Protected Notes"), which were inappropriately sold and marketed by several brokerage firms, including Lehman Brothers, Citigroup, UBS, Merrill Lynch and Wachovia. The Lehman Principal Protected Notes were marketed and sold as low-risk, conservative structured investment products to investors who were seeking income with capital preservation. Investors were advised that Lehman Principal Protected Notes would provide preservation of capital, a modest yield, and a slight gain in principal. Indeed, a brochure issued by Lehman Brothers and others, and distributed by the selling and marketing firms to their clients, stated that their "structured notes", which includes Lehman Principal Protected Notes, had "100 percent principal protection" and "uncapped appreciation potential" based upon the gains in the S&P 500 Index. However, in reality, the investments in Lehman Principal Protected Notes were subject to a significant amount of risk, including the risk of complete loss of the entire investment.
If you have lost money investing in Lehman Principal Protected Notes or principal protected note or structured products issued by another brokerage firm, or have information about the marketing of Lehman Principal Protected Notes or principal protected note or structured products issues by another brokerage firm, please call Lax & Neville LLP, (212) 696-1999.
