James O’Keefe Has Customer Complaints

If you or someone you know has lost money with James O’Keefe, you may be able to recover those losses by suing his former firm, Morgan Stanley, in the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) arbitration forum on a contingency fee basis. Mr. O’Keefe was accused of recommending unsuitable stocks from 2001 until 2015. In 2014, he was accused of recommending unsuitable stock investments from October 2007 until September 2014. In a separate complaint, O’Keefe, while registered with Merrill Lynch, was accused of making unsuitable investments and churning accounts. Churning is an especially egregious violation of securities laws, in that it typically leads to large commissions for the broker when he trades in and out of securities, sometimes on a daily basis. It also typically leads to unnecessary fees for the client. Please call us today to speak to an attorney for free about your options of suing Morgan Stanley in the FINRA arbitration forum.
