L Bond Loss Recovery Lawyers
Illinois Couple Alleges Unsuitable Recommendations in GWG L Bond Lawsuit Against Ausdal Financial
Our L Bond Loss Recovery Lawyers Are Representing These Investors in FINRA Arbitration
If you are an investor who sustained losses in GWG Holdings, there is still time to explore your legal options. Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas L Bond Loss Recovery Lawyers (investorlawyers.com) continue to represent many investors, including retirees, who sustained serious losses because their financial advisor unsuitably marketed and sold GWG L Bonds to them. You can find a list of some of the L Bond loss recovery claims we are handling here.
Most recently, we filed a GWG loss lawsuit on behalf of an Illinois couple that is seeking up to $100K in damages from brokerage firm Ausdal Financial Partners. The claimants contend that despite making it clear from the start that they were not interested in exposing their retirement assets to undue risk, their Ausdal Financial broker allegedly completely disregarded their desires and ignored basic industry standards by recommending the high-risk, non-traded, non-rated junk bonds from GWG.
We believe that this financial advisor was more interested in the high commissions he could earn rather than fulfilling the fiduciary duty he owed to his clients.
Ausdal Financial broker David Lee Frohlichstein was the registered representative with whom these investors worked. He purportedly failed to fully disclose all of the risks involved with GWG L Bonds. Not only that, but Ausdal Financial appears to have failed in its supervisory duties to these customers, including allegedly lacking the proper apparatus to oversee this financial advisor and the customers’ accounts.
Now, these Illinois investors are looking at a complete loss of principal.
These are not the only Illinois GWG L Bonds investors we are representing against Ausdal Financial Partners. A few months ago, we filed another FINRA lawsuit against the broker-dealer on behalf of other claimants who sustained losses not only in these junk bonds but also in Moody National REIT and business development company Greenbacker Renewable Energy.
Regional Broker-Dealers Sold GWG L Bonds Now Tied to Mass Ponzi Scam
More than 140 regional brokerage firms sold $1.6B of L Bonds and earned high commissions and fees in the process. Now, GWG Holdings is accused of operating a more than $1.6B Ponzi scam, and questions have come up as to what brokers could have done to protect customers instead of selling them these high-risk junk bonds while earning hefty commissions in the process.
