James A. Dunlap Jr. & Associates LLC urges investors to consider filing an individual arbitration claim versus participating in a class action lawsuit. Investors who participate in class actions often recover only a small fraction of their claim, whereas those pursuing an arbitration claim may recover substantially more. Further, unlike a class action, an arbitration claim allows you to: (1) choose your own lawyer; (2) present the unique facts of your case to an arbitration panel; (3) control the decision whether to settle your case and for how much; and (4) secure a result within approximately twelve months, as opposed to potentially years with a class action.
