Lars K. Soreide, of Soreide Law Group, a securities arbitration law firm based out of Fort Lauderdale, representing investors Nationwide before FINRA, had clients who were recently awarded approximately $560,626.00 in a FINRA arbitration against John Michael Greer, Sr., for his role in the sale of the Church Mortgage and Loan bond to a retired investor.
The Church Mortgage and Loan bond sold to the retired investor represented over 80% of his retirement savings and the bond defaulted shortly after the sale through American Heritage Church Finance, Inc. Soreide Law Group, intends to confirm the award in Federal Court and vigorously pursue full collection of the award against Mr. Greer.

Steven Graham (CRD 1977736) denies the allegations in a pending customer claim filed on August 11, 2026. The disclosure names Western International Securities as the firm, and the claim involves corporate bonds. No arbitrator has ruled on it. His BrokerCheck report also lists a settled bond dispute and a federal court matter from earlier years.
A claim filed on September 11, 2024 names Thomas Hamlin (CRD 2208505) over a 10% Senior Unsecured Note in iCap Fund III. Every disclosure on his BrokerCheck report involves an iCap private placement and names Somerset Securities as the firm. Each one settled, and a settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing.
Peter Po's most recent settlement came on June 28, 2026, when a corporate bond claim settled for $40,000. Po (CRD 3106974) appears in several settled customer disputes over corporate and high-yield bonds. The disclosures name NI Advisors or California Securities as the firm, and each matter ended in a settlement, not a finding.
