Since graduating from Princeton University in 1980, and receiving his J.D. with honors from the University of San Francisco School of Law in 1984, Cameron has represented financial services companies, particularly broker-dealers and banks, in a wide variety of securities, regulatory and employment matters.

These cases have included allegations of churning, unsuitable trading, failures to supervise, mutual fund market timing claims and late trading cases; as well as Ponzi schemes, embezzlement and money laundering. Through Cameron's representation of commercial banks, he has become well-versed in complex commercial disputes and banking, and UCC issues, including check forgeries, alterations and third-party instruments.

    Cameron has also defended and consulted with clients in a broad range of employment cases involving claims of wrongful termination, discrimination, retaliation and trade secret misappropriation.

He has represented disputants in over 150 mediations, and tried scores of arbitrations and trials before FINRA, the AAA and in state and federal courts.

    Event Synopsis:
    Securities arbitration and mediation are two distinct ways of resolving disputes between brokers and investors without going to court.

Recent rule changes and other activities in financial marketplaces have brought significant developments to this increasingly complex securities arbitration and mediation landscape.

    This course offers a discussion of recent rule changes, decisions, and other developments in the law. The speakers will also provide practical suggestions and expert advices on prosecuting and defending securities arbitration and mediation.

    Some of the major topics that will be covered in this course are:
    -Securities Arbitration and Mediation - An Overview
    -The FINRA Task Force Recommendations
    -Whether and When to Settle a Securities Mediation
    -Recent Case Law, Rule Changes and Trends
