Can the Illinois Securities Department force the person or firm that I am complaining about to return my money?
The Illinois Securities Law does not give the Department the authority to order rescission, or a return of your investment money. In some cases, the subject of an investigation or administrative prosecution will agree to make a rescission offer, but you should not expect a rescission offer to be made voluntarily. You should always consult your own attorney to determine if you have a civil remedy available, and arbitration may also be an option.
