The White Law Group recently announced that it has filed a FINRA Lawsuit against Sandlapper Securities LLC on behalf of a La Quinta, California couple, requesting damages for alleged violation of common law fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, and negligent supervision.

The claim seeks damages between $100,000.01 and $500,000.00.

According to D. Daxton White, managing partner of The White Law Group, “It is unfortunate, but we believe that many more investors have suffered devastating losses due to the broker-dealer’s failure to supervise and don’t realize they have recovery options.”

“Brokerage firms are required to supervise their advisors to ensure that they are complying with FINRA rules. If it can be determined that the financial advisor in question violated FINRA rules and the employers failed to adequately supervise him, these firms can be held responsible for any resulting losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.”

According to the statement of claim, Sandlapper Securities LLC allegedly failed to perform the necessary due diligence on these investments prior to recommending them to this particular investor.
