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

We are a Washington, DC based boutique law firm that has provided legal advice to registered investment advisers, commodity futures registrants (IBs, FCM, CPOs and CTAs), hedge funds, and other members of the alternative investment community 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 and other large firms. The Ruddy Law Office also offers related business litigation services, including representation throughout civil proceedings and regulatory investigations.
