Practice Areas

Securities Arbitration, Litigation & Mediation

At West Legal Group PC, our goal is to help investors nationwide who have been harmed by mismanagement, negligence, or fraud. We will make sure that our clients are provided with the information required to make knowledgeable decisions about their investments and rights. Learn More →

Commercial Litigation

We strive to help our clients make well-informed decisions, from the onset of a dispute through to resolution. We believe that adequate risk management is key to avoiding disruptive, large-scale litigation. If a dispute arises, we ensure that our clients are prepared with the resources, experience and knowledge to reach a prompt and successful resolution. Learn More →

Employment Disputes and Arbitration / Regulator Defense

Those who have an employment dispute, whether it involves wrongful termination, promissory notes, or a U-5 Issue will almost always be required to arbitrate under FINRA ADR. Litigation is never ideal for either party and a quick resolution, which allows everyone to return to their respective business, is almost always best for all. Additionally, at West Legal Group, we will selectively defend individual advisors / brokers and member firms who are wrongfully named in arbitrations. Learn More →

SEC Whistleblower Claims

The Securities and Exchange Commission has awarded more than $700 million to whistleblowers since the inception of the agency’s whistleblower program in 2011. Those individuals with information or details concerning violations of securities laws or fraud concerning the securities industry can present what they know with significant protections and anonymously. The whistleblower process can be intimidating. Our attorneys present the SEC whistleblower application in the best format, increasing the likelihood of the SEC pursuing an action. Learn More →

Institutional Investors & Trader Claims

At West Legal Group, we represent professionals involved in the management of assets; whether in a capacity as a trader, fund manager, trustee, or as an executive seeking to raise capital for their business. These types of issues can be complex and rigorous and require an understanding of the platforms and regulations involved. We’ve reviewed and handled issues including algorithmic trading, capital market transactions and buy-side fund manager exposure. Learn More →

Elder Abuse

Elder Financial Abuse is ILLEGAL and it includes the unauthorized or improper use of an elder’s money, benefits, belongings, property, or assets for the benefit of someone other than the older adult. This includes using an older adult’s assets without consent, under false pretense, or through intimidation and/or manipulation. We are passionate at West Legal Group in representing senior investors and their families against the brokers and investment advisers who have defrauded them or were negligent in managing their money.

Client Reviews

We were told if David couldn’t understand these investments no one could. They were right.

Our office brought David in to help with investment related problems associated with a large client. He was referred to us by another attorney in San Diego. We were told if David couldn’t understand these investments no one could. They were right. He met with us and took his time explaining the best way to handle. The client ended up hiring his firm also. We will be using him again.

Their work pays close attention to the importance of having everyone on the same page and having the client in charge and fully informed.

David and Tim have been retained by me for one year to negotiate significant domestic and international settlements, and they have shown and used when doing so the requisite skills which have moved settlements toward favorable results. They are at their best when preparing and evaluating cases, when using appropriate tactics, when using countermeasures, when making first offers, when in direct examinations, cross examinations, and when in the examination of expert witnesses. Their writing is marked by being direct and precise, by blending precision with simplicity. David and Tim are particularly sensitive to complex moral situations, where no rule of thumb applies, no simple appeal to a single principle can assure a rational outcome. In such an instance they can be counted on to sort out the conflicting factors to determine what law, rule, or principle bears upon the situation, and what are the relative urgencies which govern a timely action. David and Tim command a family of intellectual traits and abilities which allows them to cope with the unexpected, grasp relations, and solve problems with speed and originality. Especially pronounced among their intellectual traits is their ability to create a congenial, professional relationship with their clients wherein written reports are delivered without fail on a designate date to a designated site to coincide with or be separate from timely discussions. Their work pays close attention to the importance of having everyone on the same page and having the client in charge and fully informed. I am a retired California State Senator who has hired and dealt with a number of skilled attorneys at law in the private and public sector. I have place David and Tim among the best of them and have in writing this statement measured them against this lot.

David helped my family recover against the firm and they settled before court date.

A broker had placed my mother's retirement savings in several high risk investments that lost value almost immediately. We weren't aware of these investments until after she passed away. David helped my family recover against the firm and they settled before court date.

He took his time and really worked with us to make sure we were informed.

David helped explain how I needed to create and start my company from formation to getting investors. He took his time and really worked with us to make sure we were informed. He also stressed we get it right on the first go around as changing important issues later could be costly.
