Investment Mis-selling Claims

Investments always carry some risk, but when you’re given poor, misleading, or unsuitable financial advice, those risks can turn into unnecessary losses. If you invested money based on advice that did not reflect your needs or financial situation within the last 15 years, you may be eligible to make a claim.

At Charles Lyndon, we help clients recover compensation for investment losses caused by negligent or inappropriate advice.

What Is Investment Mis-Selling?

Investment mis-selling happens when advisers fail to provide honest, clear, or suitable advice. This includes failing to explain risks, exaggerating potential returns, or placing clients into investments that were never appropriate for them.

Examples of mis-sold investments include:

  • High-risk or unregulated schemes
  • Mini-bonds or loan notes
  • Overseas property or hotel developments
  • Carbon credits, forestry schemes or storage units
  • Cryptocurrencies or speculative ventures
  • Any investment sold as “safe” or “low-risk” when it was not

How to Know if Your Investment Was Mis-Sold

You may have a claim if:

  • The risks were not properly explained
  • You were advised to invest a large proportion of your savings
  • The product was far riskier than you were led to believe
  • You received advice from an adviser who was unregulated or unqualified
  • You were told the investment was guaranteed or protected
  • You were not given enough information to make an informed decision

As long as the advice or investment was made within the last 15 years, our team can investigate your case.
