Soreide Law Group comes to you with new information relating to the FINRA BrokerCheck disclosures on securities broker Neil Stanley Kaplan (CRD#: 1615516, Bethesda, Maryland). Particularly, Kaplan worked as a Morgan Stanley securities broker from 2009 to 2017. Here is a brief summary of the disclosures involving allegations of unsuitable transactions and excessive trading.
Evidently, a Morgan Stanley Smith Barney client took aim at Neil Kaplan’s sales practices as a securities broker, as the client filed an investment dispute in August 2021. Particularly, the securities firm or broker is accused of excessive trading. Supposedly, the client experienced damages stemming from Kaplan’s inappropriate sales practices relating to common stocks and preferred stocks. Therefore, the client demands that the securities firm compensate them in the amount of $240,000. It appears that this matter is currently unresolved.
Notably, FINRA BrokerCheck shows that a Morgan Stanley Smith Barney client objected to Neil Kaplan’s sales practices, per an investment dispute dated December 2017. Mainly, the client makes allegations of unsuitable corporate bonds. Supposedly, the client sustained damages because of investing in 2015 through the securities broker. Ultimately, the securities firm disagreed with the allegations but settled the matter in March 2020 by paying the client $15,000.
