Walter Shoczolek In Avantax Client Disputes

Soreide Law Group is investigating potential investor claims of sales practice violations possibly committed by securities broker Walter Paul Shoczolek III [CRD: 4488009, Cornelius, North Carolina], given the disclosures on Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) BrokerCheck. Evidently, Shoczolek worked for Avantax Investment Services Inc. from January 28, 2015, to October 2, 2023. Keep reading to learn more about the securities broker’s disclosures.

Avantax Client Accused Shoczolek Of Unsuitable, Unauthorized Trading

Specifically, on September 13, 2023, an Avantax Investment Services Inc. client filed FINRA Arbitration: 23-02405 about Walter Shoczolek. Supposedly, Shoczolek liquidated her investment without her authorization. Because of this, the investor apparently experienced damages on mutual funds. Therefore, the client requested $500,000 in compensation from Avantax Investment Services Inc. or Shoczolek. Evidently, this arbitration is pending a resolution.

Walter Shoczolek Allegedly Caused Avantax Client To Sustain Mutual Fund Damages

Particularly, a client of Avantax Investment Services contested Walter Shoczolek’s sales practices, according to a complaint. Allegedly, Shoczolek did not properly inform the client of the investments made in her account. It appears that Shoczolek caused the client to sustain damages on mutual funds. Consequently, Avantax opted to settle the matter on July 27, 2020, by compensating the client in the amount of $30,423.63.
