Securities Law

 

Securities Law is an area of legal practice which deals with the regulation of securities under federal and state laws. Federal securities laws are administrated by the Security and Exchange Commission. The Federal Securities Act of 1933 regulates the public offering and sale of securities in interstate commerce. It prohibits the offer or sale of a security not registered with the Securities Exchange Commission and requires the disclosure of certain information to the prospective investor. Legal professionals manage the legal transactions associated with securities.
