About Us

Darren C. BlumFor almost a quarter of a century (25 years), Blum Law Group's primary focus is in the practice of Securities Arbitration and Litigation, resulting in the recovery of millions of dollars on behalf of aggrieved investors.

The Firm's securities cases have been featured in such financial and national publications as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and Investment News.

We have represented clients in Federal and state courts and in arbitration through the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the National Futures Association (NFA) and the American Arbitration Association (AAA).
