Chad Bell

Partner @Korein Tillery

At Korein Tillery, Mr. Bell’s practice focuses on commodities manipulation under the Commodity Exchange Act, securities litigation, antitrust litigation, and consumer protection. He is currently representing investors in ethanol futures and options seeking to recover losses related to multi-year manipulation of ethanol markets; odd-lot bond investors alleging that large banks participated in a multi-year anticompetitive group boycott of electronic bond trading platforms that would have provided better pricing and more competition when trading bonds, costing those investors billions of dollars annually; a fund damaged by manipulation in violation of the Commodity Exchange Act during the so-called “Volmaggedon” spike in the Cboe’s Volatility Index on February 5-6, 2018; and Florida consumers who allege they were harmed in violation of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act in connection with their purchase of pre-need cremation services. Mr. Bell was also part of the team of Korein Tillery lawyers who have successfully recovered over $5.2 billion to-date in losses incurred by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), and millions of dollars for other insurance clients, arising from misrepresentations made about residential mortgage-backed securities in violation of the Securities Act of 1933 and state law.
