Sparer Law Group (SLG) built its reputation recovering investment losses for institutions and high-net-worth individuals in complex securities cases. Founded in 2003 by Alan Sparer after 20 years with a large San Francisco law firm, SLG's four attorneys also represent registered investment advisors and hedge funds in regulatory and litigation matters. In 2009, SLG was appointed lead counsel in multi-district class action litigation involving the Oppenheimer California Municipal Bond Fund. In 2010, SLG recovered over $20 million frozen in auction rate securities, and successfully resolved a major SEC enforcement action against a California investment advisor.
