Welcome to the web site of the Ruddy Law Office, PLLC.

We are a Washington, DC based boutique law firm that provides legal advice to registered investment advisers, commodity futures registrants (IBs, FCM, CPOs and CTAs), hedge funds, other members of the alternative investment community, entrepreneurs engaged in various financing phases, and equity or debt investors in early stage companies. We have proudly offered these services since our inception in 2001.

The core client base of the Ruddy Law Office consists of smaller brokerage and advisory firms - i.e. those firms with a single office or less than a dozen employees - that are seeking niche-oriented advice delivered with the highest quality of service. At the same time, the practice serves as legal counsel to futures commission merchants, larger investment firms, entrepreneurs from diverse industries, private equity funds, and venture capitalists. The Ruddy Law Office also offers related business litigation services, including representation throughout civil proceedings and regulatory investigations.
