I step in immediately, review the allegations, and start building your defense from day one.

Watch This Before You Speak to Investigators or Regulators
“If you’re being investigated for insider trading, the biggest mistake I see is trying to explain trading activity without legal guidance. What you say can be used against you. Before you respond—get clarity.”
The Reality
Here’s What Most People Don’t Realize
Insider trading investigations often begin long before any charges are filed.
Regulators and investigators may:
- Review your trades, messages, and communications
- Analyze timing patterns and market activity
- Build a case using limited or selective information
- Use interviews to strengthen their investigation
Early decisions can significantly impact your outcome.

- Financial data and market activity
- Witness statements and testimony
Regulators are highly skilled at building these cases. A defense lawyer can review all evidence and identify weaknesses before it is too late.
An insider trading defense lawyer protects your position throughout every stage of the investigation and case.
That includes:

- Identifying weaknesses in the prosecution's case
- Protecting you during investigations and questioning
- Negotiating with prosecutors or preparing for trial
At the Law Office of Zane Weeks, PLLC, the focus is on building a strategic defense that protects both your freedom and your reputation.
