Soreide Law Group is examining potential claims for investors who may have suffered financial setbacks involving Gary Costello [CRD: 6117388, Boca Raton, Florida]. Evidently, he joined Aegis Capital Corp. in Boca Raton, Florida on September 11, 2023. Prior associations of Costello include Truist Advisory Services Inc. and Oppenheimer Co. Inc. This article outlines information about Gary Costello's history of client disputes.

Oppenheimer Co. Inc. Investor Alleged Unsuitable Trading By Costello

On December 19, 2023, an Oppenheimer Co. Inc. investor lodged FINRA Arbitration No. 23-03584 targeting Gary Costello. The client claimed that Costello made unsuitable, unauthorized, and over-concentrated investments in equities, stocks, and ETFs. Supposedly, his trading amounted to violations of FINRA regulations. Consequently, the client seeks $300,000 in damages from either Oppenheimer Co. Inc. or Costello, with the arbitration currently pending resolution.

Unauthorized Trading Allegations Against Gary Costello By Truist Investment Services Inc. Investor

Also, a complaint emerged on August 25, 2023, when a Truist Investment Services Inc. client contested the sales tactics of Gary Costello. The client accused Costello of unauthorized trading in 2023, leading to stock losses. As a result, the client is pursuing compensatory damages from Truist Investment Services Inc. or Costello. However, this case remains unresolved.

Other Claims Of Unauthorized Trading By Costello

In a separate incident dated August 16, 2023, another Truist Investment Services Inc. client voiced concerns over Gary Costello’s trading practices. Specifically, the investor alleged unauthorized trades executed by Costello between December 2022 and August 2023, causing losses in stocks. The client, therefore, demands compensation from Truist Investment Services Inc. or Costello, with the firm estimating the alleged losses to exceed $5,000.

Termination Of Gary Costello Due To Trade Corrections And Margin Activity

Also, Truist Investment Services Inc. severed ties with Costello on August 14, 2023. The termination followed a company investigation into trade corrections and questionable margin activities involving both Costello's personal and client accounts.
