Soreide Law Group has filed a FINRA arbitration on behalf of their client (Claimant) against:
MML INVESTORS SERVICES, LLC (Respondent)
The Claimant, who resides in Wisconsin, brings this action to recover losses while he was a client with MML INVESTORS SERVICES, LLC. The lawsuit states that the Respondent and its former Financial Advisor, Todd Sivak, allegedly understood that the Claimant did not want to take any unnecessary risks investing. However, according to the lawsuit, the Respondent and the Financial Advisor, Todd W. Sivak, allegedly recommended that the Claimant invest his entire Roth IRA in the Invesco OppenheimerSteelpath MLP (MLPRX). Todd Sivak is not named in this lawsuit.
The lawsuit alleges the Respondent, MML INVESTORS SERVICES and Todd Sivak failed to advise the Claimant that the concentrated investment recommendation was not diversified. Also, MLPRX was a speculative energy investment that subjected the Claimant to uncompensated risk.
