Securities & Investigations
The Spencer Law Firm handles securities and commercial corporate/partnership litigation, SEC and state securities commission defense, corporate governance and white- collar criminal defense matters in federal, state and regulatory investigations and grand jury testimony preparation.
The Spencer Law Firm can guide its clients through the State Securities Commissions and SEC enforcement process. Few issuers, promoters, and organizers realize that it is a felony in Texas and many states to offer and/or sell securities without compliance with state laws. Our lawyers assist with all phases of the investigative process and includes sworn testimony before the SEC, various district attorneys, state commissions and responding to subpoenas, preparing Wells submissions, trial work and appellate cases involving the SEC, the State of Texas and FINRA. It often happens that several additional states or sometimes, all 50 states get involved if the securities sales involve sales in those states and thus familiarity with these various state blue sky laws is necessary.
​
