Notably, on October 20, 2025, a NI Advisors client filed FINRA Arbitration No. 25-02280 about LI Kelly. Mainly, the client alleged that Kelly made unsuitable recommendations involving corporate bonds that declined in value after the issuer declared bankruptcy. For this reason, the client allegedly sustained damages connected to corporate bonds. Consequently, the client requested $1,950,000 in compensation from NI Advisors or Kelly. BrokerCheck shows that this arbitration is ongoing.
Specifically, a client of NI Advisors contested LI Kelly’s sales practices by filing FINRA Arbitration No. 24-02613 on December 16, 2024. Allegedly, Kelly breached a contract and a fiduciary duty concerning corporate bond investments made between 2019 and 2020 that later lost value after the issuer declared bankruptcy. It appears that Kelly allegedly caused the client to sustain damages. As a result, the client seeks compensation from NI Advisors or Kelly in the amount of $100,000 to $500,000 in this ongoing matter.
