Investor Representation
At Origin Law, our attorneys bring extensive experience in advising foreign entrepreneurs and investors, providing comprehensive guidance on securities transactions and related matters.
We support clients at every stage of their investment journey, with a particular focus on private placements and public market securities. Our services include conducting thorough due diligence on investment sponsors, advising on investment terms, and safeguarding your rights as an investor.
Private Offering Investments
Investing in private equity securities requires a deep understanding of the investment’s nature, terms, and the associated rights and obligations. Unlike publicly traded securities, private equity offerings are exempt from registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), resulting in less transparency. These investments are typically targeted at “sophisticated” investors who can bear significant financial risks. However, the complexity of these securities often leaves investors vulnerable to misunderstandings regarding the implications of the terms and their rights throughout the investment’s life cycle. At Origin Law, we represent private investors by meticulously reviewing offering documents, conducting due diligence on investment sponsors, advising on the terms of the investment, and advocating for investors’ interests in negotiations with sponsors.
Investor Rights and Protection
Financial losses for investors can arise from various sources, including misconduct by broker-dealers and investment advisers. Some investors are sold securities with high fees that are unsuitable for their financial profile, while others are offered complex and risky investment products that should only be considered by highly sophisticated investors. Additionally, some clients receive account statements that are so convoluted they cannot assess the extent of their losses, which can be a tactic to obscure excessive trading or risk-taking. At Origin Law, we assist clients in determining whether their investment losses are due to normal market fluctuations or misconduct by financial institutions, ensuring that their rights and interests are fully protected.
