That Provision requires you to arbitrate your claim before FINRA, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. FINRA is a securities company trade association, so it should come as no surprise that its arbitration procedures tend to be more favorable to the securities industry than they are to individual investors.
  
  I guide you through the process, beginning with the filing of a Statement of Claim, the selection of an arbitration panel, pre-hearing discovery, and presentation of the case. Where arbitration is not required, a decision must be made to proceed through the arbitration process on a voluntary basis, or to initiate suit in state or federal court. Most litigators prefer a juried courtroom presentation over an arbitration presentation. I feel strongly that the greatest safeguard to your rights happens before a jury and I always explore avenues to bypass arbitration. Arbitration is not my preferred method of resolution.
  
  Whatever the method used to resolve your claim, I bring to bear every tool of technology and every legal and persuasive skill to aggressively establish your point of view with the decision maker. While successful outcomes can never be guaranteed, rigorous preparation makes it more likely to occur. A strong presentation draws on many skills, including creative writing, effective exhibit preparation, and employment of knowledgeable experts, oral advocacy and relentless preparation. I prepare cases to be tried, not just to be settled. Your opponent is likely to be a major company with a huge litigation budget. They are sophisticated enough to know the difference between a case being processed for settlement as opposed to one being prepared for trial. I know the difference and I understand that good results just don't happen on their own.  less
