FL, March 26 - As a key contributor to the enforcement of investors' statutory rights under provisions of the Florida Investor Protection Act, Securities Fraud Attorney Mark Tepper has retained NewsMark Public Relations to underscore his campaign against abusive broker sale practices.
Tepper, a former New York Assistant Attorney General and Chief Trial Counsel at the Bureau of Investor Protection and Securities, representing the interests of investors in criminal and civil actions in over 30 years of practicing law, has completed examination of a five-year survey of Florida Arbitration Awards.
An author of numerous articles on securities arbitration, his findings, the latest in his efforts to determine whether Florida arbitrators have enforced the statutory rights provided to investment fraud victims, will be published next month in the PIABA Bar Journal of the Public Investors Arbitration Bar Association. "I'm appalled by the staggering percentage of times, over the years of the study that investors failed to reap full benefits of the excellent provisions of the Florida Investor Protection Act." Tepper said.
"Attorney Mark Tepper brings an integrity and passion to his mission to protect investors who have been victimized by aggressive broker sale tactics. We're considering a number of speaking platforms where he can share his invaluable legal insights with individual investors who feel their portfolios have been mishandled," said NewsMark CEO Mark Hopkinson.

Class action or a representative action is a form of lawsuit in which a large group of people collectively bring a claim to court and/or in which a class of defendants is being sued. This form of collective lawsuit originated in the United States and is still predominantly a U.S. phenomenon, at least the U.S. variant of it. In the United States federal courts, class actions are governed by Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule. Since 1938, many states have adopted rules similar to the FRCP. However, some states like California have civil procedure systems which deviate significantly from the federal rules; the California Codes provide for four separate types of class actions. As a result, there are two separate treatises devoted solely to the complex topic of California class actions. Some states, such as Virginia, do not provide for any class actions, while others, such as New York, limit the types of claims that may be brought as class actions.
