Evidently, a Portsmouth Financial Services client filed FINRA Arbitration No. 23-03410 about Stephen Stanford. Mainly, the client alleged that Stanford provided misleading investment advice, failed to conduct due diligence, and made unsuitable recommendations concerning GWG L bonds and preferred stock. For this reason, on April 16, 2024, Portsmouth Financial Services settled this matter by paying the client $25,000 in damages.
Additionally, a client of both PaineWebber Inc. and J.C. Bradford contested Stephen Stanford’s sales practices, according to a complaint. Allegedly, Stanford engaged in unauthorized trading.
