Legal Advice for Investors

The best way to avoid legal problems in an investment is to protect yourself when first entering into the investment.  While this is not possible for certain types of investment, for other types of investments, such as investments in private vehicles (for example, limited partnerships), it is crucial that you understand your rights and obligations before investing.

As a law firm that both provides advice to investors entering into investments and representation for investors whose investments have run into legal issues, we are perfectly situated to advise you on what to do and what to avoid when entering into a new investment.

What types of investments?

In general, this part of our practice focuses on investors entering into private investments of any kind.  

Private investments refer to those investments that are done outside of the public markets like stock or bond markets.

These can be private investments in different asset classes such as real estate, hedge funds, or private equity. 

They can also involve various types of investment vehicles such as limited partnerships, trusts or corporations.

What can we do?

In short, we can ensure that the investment is sound from a legal perspective and as favourable to you as possible.

We can review documentation that you have been asked to sign.  Or, if appropriate, we can also negotiate and structure investments of different types on your behalf.

We can ensure that your investment is made in the most legally sound way possible given the circumstances.
