Comprehensive Financial Advice Claims Services

From FOS complaints to High Court negligence trials, we recover losses from negligent financial advice.

Investment Advice Negligence

Unsuitable investment recommendations, high-risk product advice failures, failure to assess attitude to risk, and breach of suitability requirements.

Retirement Planning Failures

Negligent pension planning, inadequate retirement income projections, annuity purchase failures, drawdown advice errors, and tax planning negligence.

Portfolio Mismanagement

Discretionary management failures, unauthorised trading, failure to monitor portfolios, rebalancing negligence, and breach of investment mandate.

Risk Assessment Failures

Inadequate risk profiling, failure to assess capacity for loss, risk tolerance mismatches, and recommendations inconsistent with risk appetite.

Diversification Failures

Failure to diversify portfolios, concentration risk exposure, single asset class overweighting, and inadequate asset allocation advice.

Churning & Excessive Fees

Excessive trading to generate commissions, unjustified portfolio turnover, excessive adviser fees, undisclosed charges, and commission-driven advice.

Our Approach

Financial adviser duty expertise combined with suitability analysis and strategic litigation.

1

Duty Analysis

Financial advisers owe duties in contract, tort, and under FCA regulation. We conduct rigorous analysis of adviser duties, suitability obligations, and conduct requirements—identifying actionable breaches and building compelling negligence cases.

2

Suitability & Causation

Proving negligent advice requires demonstrating unsuitability and causation of loss. We analyse client circumstances, investment objectives, and product characteristics—building compelling evidence that recommended investments were unsuitable and caused quantifiable losses.

3

Multi-Channel Recovery

We pursue recovery through FOS complaints for regulated firms, FSCS claims for failed firms, and professional negligence litigation against advisers and firms—maximising recovery prospects across all available compensation routes.

4

Expert Evidence

Financial advice negligence claims require expert evidence on suitability, adviser standards, and portfolio management. We work with independent financial advisers and investment experts to provide credible testimony supporting breach and causation.
