Bethlehem, Georgia FINRA Defense Lawyers

Do You Need a FINRA Defense Attorney? You may have read that Joia Evans of Bethlehem, Georgia was permanently barred by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) from working in the securities industry because she failed to comply with FINRA Rule 8210 and 2010. In June 2015, Joia Evans joined TIAA-CREF Individual & Institutional Services, LLC and became registered as a General Securities Representative. The firm later filed a Uniform Termination Notice for Securities Industry Registration (Form U5) on November 13, 2020, disclosing that she had been terminated due to alleged misconduct. According to the findings, FINRA sent Evans a request to provide documents and information in connection with their investigation regarding Evans’s potential participation in outside business activities while registered with her member firm.

Did John Michael Elias Saad Cause You Investment Losses? A U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit decision became final in which John Michael Elias Saad was barred from association with any FINRA member in all capacities.
