Jonathan Kurta

Jonathan Kurta is a Founding Partner of Kurta Law, a national law firm representing investors who have suffered financial losses as a result of stockbroker fraud. Mr. Kurta has extensive experience litigating investor disputes before Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) arbitration panels. He and the Kurta Law team have handled over 4,000 FINRA arbitrations and recovered $750+ million for clients all over the U.S. and overseas. These cases often involve stocks, bonds, options, mutual funds, private placements, real estate investment trusts (REITS), structured products, and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Before founding Kurta Law, Jonathan Kurta worked at a large national law firm where he worked on high-profile disputes. Mr. Kurta spent his early career representing large and medium-sized brokerage firms throughout the country—an experience that makes him particularly effective when he represents investors who have been defrauded by those very same companies.

Mr. Kurta understands that for most investors, their investment portfolios represent years of hard work and sacrifice. Kurta Law works with every type of investor—empty-nesters, experienced investors, farmers, doctors, and entrepreneurs. He started his law firm to protect hardworking individuals from fraudulent brokers and greedy brokerage firms.

Jonathan Kurta has devoted himself to improving the securities industry for investors. To support this mission, he became a member of the Public Investors Arbitration Bar Association (PIABA). PIABA promotes investor education and the enforcement of securities industry rules and regulations. Mr. Kurta served on the Board of Directors for PIABA for several years and continues in a leadership role in the organization. Throughout his career, Mr. Kurta has lectured on various issues involving securities arbitration and violations of securities laws. He is an Associate Professor at New York Law School where he teaches a class on securities litigation. When he is not fighting to recover money that has fallen into the wrong hands, Mr. Kurta enjoys spending time with his wife and three children at home on Long Island. Mr. Kurta is, unfortunately, an avid Jets fan.

Mr. Kurta is admitted to practice in New York, New Jersey and Illinois, as well as before the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the Fourth, Sixth, Ninth, and Eleventh Circuits and the U.S. District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York.
