INVESTOR ALERT! Guadalupe Wright of Merrill Lynch in Anchorage, AK

Have you lost money with financial advisor Thomas Sova from Baton Rouge, Louisiana?  We are looking into allegations made by FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) against Thomas E. Sova. FINRA suspended Sova from the securities industry for five months, fined him $5,000, and ordered him to disgorge $5,000 in commissions.  Sova was being investigated regarding allegations that he sold $250,000 in investments in the Woodbridge Group of Companies. Last year, Woodbridge filed for bankruptcy, and investors will likely suffer substantial losses.  

Thomas Sova was a registered representative and financial advisor with Hornor, Townsend & Kent from 2007 to June 2018.  He worked out of a branch office in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He was also terminated by Hornor, Townsend & Kent for his sales of Woodbridge.

Broker-dealers like Hornor, Townsend & Kent have a responsibility to adequately supervise all representatives who are registered through their firm, including investments sold by their registered representatives.  Broker-dealers also must take steps to ensure that their financial advisors follow all securities rules and regulations. When broker-dealers fail to adequately supervise their registered representatives, they may be liable for investment losses sustained by customers.
