Michael J. Betts LLC - Pittsburgh, PA

At Michael J. Betts LLC, we stand as advocates for those who have been wronged in the complex world of finance. Based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, our mission is to recover losses suffered by our clients due to investment-related fraud, insurance and annuity scams, and banking-related misconduct. We also extend our services to securities professionals, navigating disputes involving Form U4/U5 disclosures, promissory notes and investigations from the SEC, FINRA and state entities.

We are more than just legal counsel; we are zealous representatives dedicated to providing personalized, hands-on attention to each case we undertake. By intentionally limiting the number of matters we handle, we ensure that every client receives the thorough and proactive representation they deserve. Michael J. Betts, our principal attorney, is directly involved in all aspects of the firm's cases, bringing his extensive experience in litigating financial fraud to bear in federal and state courts, as well as in FINRA arbitrations.

Our competence spans a wide range of misconduct, including fraudulent misrepresentations, unsuitable investments, unauthorized trading, churning, improper options trading, insurance and annuity fraud, and supervisory failures. We are well-versed in the legal claims arising from these actions, including violations of federal and state securities laws, consumer fraud statutes like the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law, and common law claims such as fraud, negligence and breach of contract. Additionally, we tackle bank-related fraud, addressing forged or altered checks and fraudulent transfers under the Uniform Commercial Code.

With a track record of recovering over $10 million for our clients, we have proven our ability to achieve successful outcomes in financial fraud cases. We also provide experienced representation for financial advisers, brokers and other professionals in employment disputes, investigations and enforcement proceedings. We believe in reasonable and transparent fees, offering alternative arrangements, including contingent fees in appropriate cases, to meet our clients' needs. With Michael J. Betts LLC, you're not just hiring a law firm; you're partnering with a team committed to justice and recovery.
