New York Securities Arbitration Lawyers
Employment and Investment Law Firm
Lax & Neville LLP was founded in mid-2007 by the merger of the successful and growing law practices of Brian J. Neville and Barry R. Lax. Our law firm is a boutique New York City litigation firm focused on all matters concerning the financial services industry. Our main practice areas include securities arbitration and investment fraud litigation, representing financial services industry professionals on employment, regulatory and business matters, employment litigation, commercial litigation, and bankruptcy litigation. The New York securities arbitration lawyers at Lax & Neville LLP have built a strong reputation nationwide advocating on behalf of individual and institutional investors, industry professionals, employers, independent contractors, brokers, investment bankers, investment advisors, traders, hedge funds and smaller and regional broker dealers in arbitration forums across the country, as well as several state and federal courts.
We remain fiercely independent from, and often times adverse to, the largest financial institutions on Wall Street, including, but not limited to, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, UBS and Wells Fargo, which are usually represented by the largest and most resourceful internationally recognized litigation law firms. As we are adverse to these globally recognized law firms, it is imperative that our attorneys match and/or exceed the knowledge and expertise of our adversaries in our practice areas. Based on our successful record, we have surpassed that goal as our New York securities arbitration attorneys have litigated and arbitrated hundreds of claims against those financial institutions and their counsel, and have received substantial awards, judgments and/or settlements in our clients’ favor in various forums, including:
- FINRA, JAMS, AAA, ICC and NFA arbitrations;
- State and Federal Courts; and
- Regulatory investigations and enforcement proceedings.
