The bonds paid interest at the rate of 6%, withsemiannual payments, and the client received $300 in interest payments before the firm went belly-up atthe end of a year, and its bonds were deemed worthless. The client has filed suit, and its attorneys’ feesand court costs are expected to be $1,000. When the investment is a bond, the state has recently beenassessing an interest rate equal to the interest rate paid by the security as an equitable interest paymentguideline in civil penalties.
