Company Description
Since its founding in 1992, Goodman & Nekvasil has always represented investors. Founding attorneys Joel Goodman and Kalju Nekvasil created the firm to give excellent representation to clients who had wrongfully suffered losses on their investments. Over 25 years later, this mission continues with an expanded staff and many achievements. Kalju Nekvasil now manages the firm following Joel’s retirement in 2011. As the lead attorney, Kalju has more than 35 years of legal experience in the securities arbitration, litigation and regulatory fields, including approximately 7 years as Regional Counsel for the NASD now known as FINRA. A number of the cases handled by Kalju have been reported in national investment publications. This formidable track record has enabled the firm to achieve a 99% case settlement rate in its time of operation. In addition to the firm’s continued success representing investors in arbitration, in 2002 attorney Stephen Krosschell appeared in front of the U.S. Supreme Court (Harvey v. Salomon Smith Barney, Inc.).
