Financial services and shareholder claims
When you invest your savings or make decisions about what to do with your pension, you have a right to expect that your investment will be properly managed in accordance with any applicable rules.
Leigh Day has a specialist team working in financial services and shareholder claims. We act for individuals who have suffered a loss as a result of mis-sold investments, or other unethical and illegal behaviour or breaches of regulatory rules by financial services providers or companies.
Our work is vitally important to protect individuals who have lost their savings or been misled about an investment decision. We stand up for the rights of individual investors.
The Woodford Equity Income Fund was one of the largest ever investment funds in the UK, with assets under management of over £10 billion at its peak. Its collapse in 2019 caused many ordinary investors to lose huge amounts. This is why we are taking action on behalf of investors in this fund.
