About Oakes & Fosher
Oakes & Fosher, LLC is a law firm that focuses exclusively on representing investors in securities arbitration cases. Our attorneys have handled hundreds of cases, and have tried numerous cases before arbitration panels.
Since 2007, Oakes and Fosher has won more cases on behalf of individual investors tried before full FINRA panels than any other attorney in the country.
We have litigated cases against the vast majority of brokerage firms operating in the United States, and we have been hired by the state of Illinois to represent one of its counties in a securities case. We are keenly aware of the legal duties brokers and brokerage firms have to their customers, and the best ways to recover for the damages you have incurred. If you seek a professional opinion as to whether wrongdoing occurred in your brokerage account or with your investments, Oakes & Fosher will provide a completely free and confidential evaluation of your broker’s conduct and your potential case.
With our attorneys and paralegals and staff members on your side, you can rest easy knowing that tremendous experience and knowledge, combined with resources and commitment, are hard at work for you. Learn more about how we’ve helped by reading our client testimonials.

Client Testimonials
We’ve helped hundreds of clients with their securities fraud matters. See what our satisfied clients have to say.
I would like to thank Bruce Oakes and his professional and successful representation. My investment fraud case was settled in a fair and timely manner. Mr. Oakes and his entire staff were communicative and supportive throughout the process. I highly recommend the firm to anyone who has been taken advantage of by an unscrupulous broker.
Simply grateful for people like you. Thank you for taking my case, appreciate everything you did.
Dear Bruce – I’ve had the great good fortune not to have needed a lawyer for most of my life, but when I did, I’m thankful I found you. Saying someone went “above and beyond” is a cliché, but your work on our behalf – even after the case was over and you had no obligation to us- restored my faith in people. You truly did go above and beyond for us and made a long, draining, bummer of a situation inherently better. If you ever need a reference, you can count on me.
