New York, NY securities attorney Jenice L. Malecki talks about her experience as a securities litigator. She shares that she has a compelling background as a securities litigator, beginning her career in class action securities litigation. Early on, she worked on the famous Crazy Eddie case—a flamboyant electronics retailer that went public and defrauded its investors. The case resulted in an eight-figure settlement, which at the time was a significant sum, and also involved assisting the U.S. Marshals in apprehending Crazy Eddie. The case drew front-page news coverage, making her experience both high-profile and formative.

She later transitioned to a securities defense firm representing the progeny of the “Wolf of Wall Street,” gaining firsthand exposure to clients who operated outside the bounds of every rule. Representing such clients required mastering the rules inside and out. She handled customer arbitrations, regulatory defense, and even helped her clients recruit additional brokers during ongoing regulatory proceedings.

Following these experiences, she founded Malecki Law, designing her practice to balance both plaintiff and defense work, which allowed her to maintain sharp skills and a comprehensive understanding of opposing perspectives. She actively contributes to the legal community, serving as co-chair of the Securities Arbitration Committee for the New York State Bar Association, and has been featured on television and in major publications. Malecki Law represents her dream practice, where she values both her clients and her colleagues.
