Investors might have sustained losses due to securities broker April Marie Wilson (also known as April Marie Forsman) [CRD: 4515321, Bellevue, Washington], based on disclosures on Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) BrokerCheck.

Below, you can learn more about the investor complaints concerning April Wilson.
Evidently, on August 26, 2024, a Hornor Townsend Kent LLC client filed FINRA Arbitration No. 24-01835 about April Wilson. Particularly, the client alleged that Wilson made unsuitable recommendations and steered the client towards maintaining the investments despite the risks of poor performance. Because of this, the client allegedly sustained damages linked to alternative investments, including REITs. Therefore, the client requested more than $5,000 in compensation from Hornor Townsend Kent or Wilson. Notably, this arbitration is pending a resolution.
Also, on January 17, 2023, a Royal Alliance Associates Inc. client filed a complaint about April Wilson.
