The White Law Group announces filing of a FINRA Arbitration lawsuit today against Reef Securities Inc. The claim, submitted on behalf of a Cave Creek, Arizona resident, alleges claims for violation of common law fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, and negligent supervision.
The claim further alleges that Reef Securities Inc. unsuitably invested the client in a single, high-risk oil and gas drilling programs with Reef Oil and Gas companies – the Reef Bakken Bear Cat Drilling Fund, LP.
The FINRA claim seeks damages between $50,000 and $100,000.
Before recommending an investment, a broker-dealer has a fiduciary duty to adequately disclose the risks involved in the investment and to perform the necessary due diligence to determine whether the investment is suitable for the investor.
It is alleged Reef Securities Inc. failed to perform the necessary due diligence on this investments prior to recommending them to this particular investor.
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 financial advisors to ensure that they are complying with FINRA rules. If it can be determined that the advisor 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.”
