What are investors’ typical claims against brokers?
Problems that generally arise in the broker-client relationship occur in these areas:

(1) false or misleading information that induced you to trade (fraud);

(2) excessive trading to generate more commissions for the broker (known as "churning");

(3) trading without your authorization;

(4) sending you a confirmation when you have not agreed to buy the stock (known as a "wooden ticket");

(5) recommending excessively risky investments for your circumstances ("unsuitability");

(6) forgery or theft;

(7) distributing misleading investment documents; and

(8) negligent or unsuitable recommendations.
