Wells Fargo Client Accused David Engel Of Misrepresentation And Unauthorized Transfers

What Misrepresentations And Unauthorized Transactions Mean

In securities disputes, a misrepresentation claim means a client says a broker or financial advisor gave them materially inaccurate information about an investment, transaction, risk, cost, or another important fact. An unauthorized transaction generally refers to activity in a client’s account that took place without the client’s required permission beforehand. These allegations can concern what a client was told, what the client approved, and whether account activity matched those instructions.
