One Lawyer's Good Advice On Changing Firms

I have known Joel Beck for a number of years. First, I knew him as a regulatory attorney at the NASD (now FINRA). Joel went on his own a couple of years ago and writes a very useful blog.

Recently, Joel posted a list of things to consider when a broker is considering changing firms or going it on their own. The list can be found here. Most of the advice is common sense, but the benefit is that it is all in one place.

Changing firms is usually a traumatic experience, particularly if one firm is mad at the other. Having a lawyer in your corner can help.

That's the view from The Law Planet - Jupiter, Florida.
