Investor Alert: Alexander Jon James was fined $10,000 and suspended for outside business activity

FINRA Sanctions & Allegations of Misconduct

FINRA fined $10,000 and suspended Alexander Jon James (CRD #5630825) from Royal Palm Beach, Florida of ALLSTATE FINANCIAL SERVICES, LLC for engaging in an outside business activity without providing prior written notice to his member firm. In addition, James and two other individuals, who were not associated with any member firms, formed and incorporated a company that charged users a monthly subscription fee for access to a website that subscribers could use to seek funding for various projects or ventures. The suspension is in effect from April 6, 2020, through April 5, 2021.

Investors Have the Right to Recover Their Losses

When investments are sold by brokerage firms licensed by FINRA, they are subject to the laws that FINRA enforces. The brokerage firms are responsible for ensuring that their brokers are trading fairly, ethically and in the best interest of their clients. Ideally, they would accomplish this through careful supervision. Unfortunately, too often this supervision has been inadequate to fully protect investors. If you purchased any investments through a representative of a registered brokerage firm and suffered losses through negligence or fraud, it immediately puts the brokerage firm at fault for failing to supervise their broker. FINRA law then dictates that you can hold the firm legally liable to recover your damages.
