Soreide Law Group is filing a FINRA arbitration on behalf of our clients against CAPITAL INVESTMENT GROUP, INC. for the sales of Hard Rock Partners Drilling Program losses with broker:
CORT FREDERICK MEINELSCHMIDT (CORT MEINELSCHMIDT) (CRD#: 4757304)
Soreide Law Group has successfully sued broker/dealers for selling the now defunct oil and gas investment, Hard Rock Exploration, Inc. and also Hard Rock Partners 2011-A L.P. Drilling Program, and other Hard Rock sponsored offerings.
Hard Rock Exploration’s lender, Huntington National Bank, filed a motion to convert the company’s Chapter 11 proceeding to Chapter 7. The lender called it, a “hemorrhaging of cash” from the company and a rehabilitation of their business impossible.
According to Bloomberg, Hard Rock Exploration, Inc. provides oil and gas exploration and production services in Virginia and West Virginia. It focuses on drilling horizontal wells. The company was founded in 2003, and is based in Charleston, West Virginia. On September 5, 2017, Hard Rock Exploration, Inc. along with its affiliates filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of West Virginia.
Soreide Law Group finds these kinds of private placements, or alternative investments, to be extremely high-risk for the low to moderate risk investor. They are sold as unregistered securities and are not regulated.  Brokers must understand the objective for each of their clients before selling such a high-risk product.
