STRONG REPRESENTATION FOR SEC ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS
The purpose of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is to investigate instances of securities law violations. Their enforcement division is responsible for investigating and pursuing criminal and civil cases based on their findings. They often work with other government agencies to gather information that they can then use against you should they choose to prosecute violations of SEC law. If you have been arrested or if you believe your company is under SEC investigation, you should not hesitate to retain an experienced securities fraud attorney in Boston.
