Evidently, on May 7, 2024, an American Trust Investment Services Inc. client filed FINRA Arbitration No. 24-01000 concerning Ivan West. Primarily, the client alleged that West breached his fiduciary duty, was negligent, and that the firm failed to supervise certain representatives. For this reason, the client allegedly experienced damages relating to TIC 1031 investments. Therefore, the client requested $5,000,000 in compensation from American Trust Investment Services Inc. or West. It appears that this arbitration is ongoing.
