Finance & Insurance
Brokers, financial advisors and insurance agents have a fiduciary obligation to those they serve, one that forbids them to engage in behavior that places their own interests above those of their clients. Under certain conditions, clients may be entitled to compensation for damages they suffer as the result of an agent's failure to perform fiduciary duties.
Securities fraud or negligence, for example, occurs when clients are encouraged to invest in high-risk schemes, purchase volatile stock, or participate in financial arrangements that devalue their savings or otherwise cause financial loss. Insurance bad faith occurs when a client loses money as a result of an insurance company's delay in handling claims, refusal to make a reasonable settlement offer, or unreasonable interpretation of an insurance policy.
