Securities Arbitration: Burned Investors Lack of Use Criticized.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Santa Monica, California, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) December 16, 2011 -- Securities Arbitration's Paul Young today criticized both Occupy Wall Street and Wall Street investment firms. "The stats are shocking," says the long-time burned investor's advocate. "With all the publicity and attention paid to Occupy Wall Street, it is disappointing that, through October, FINRA has taken in just 4,000 cases from burned investors seeking recovery of money lost due to the alleged misdeeds of Wall Street firms."

Securities arbitration provides burned investors to take their grievances to a neutral panel in arbitration to recover money lost in investments and accounts due to misdeeds of licensed investment firms and individual investment professionals. The top issues are suitability, misrepresentation, failure to supervise, and other violations.

"Wall Street and Occupy Wall Street are on opposite sides. But they can and should come together to promote securities arbitration as an effective forum for burned investors to bring their claims, to get a proper and fair hearing, and a reliable result," says Young, whose advocacy for burned investors nationwide began in 1989. "Real people who've been abused by Wall Street can fight back and they can win. The number of case filings 2011 should be not 4,000 but 400,000 or more. If it were so, then it would mean that both Occupy Wall Street and Wall Street (and FINRA) were both doing right by Americans," concludes Young.

Mission: To educate and also to get money back for burned Main Streeters on a case by case basis via arbitration when Wall Street financial firms and brokers have victimized Americans.
