Did You Lose Money With Esa Jokela As Your Stockbroker?
In 2019 a customer of Madison Avenue Securities complained to the Better Business Bureau that Esa Jokela had misrepresented an annuity product sold to the customer. Madison Avenue Securities responded that the sale was not made by that firm and the file was closed without further action. Apparently, the customer did not seek professional assistance to pursue the matter.
Esa Jokela discloses 7 currently outstanding judgment/liens filed in Palm Beach County Federal Court, including 4, totaling more than $270,000, in favor of the Internal Revenue Service for taxes.
Has Your Brokerage Firm “Denied” Your Claim for Damages Due to Stockbroker Malpractice?
It is quite common, as well as predictable, for brokerage firms to deny a customer’s complaint made directly to the company. Firms know that in many, if not most, instances telling the customer “we don’t think it’s our fault” will be an end to the problem. In other words, it’s generally a waste of your time to sit down with the office manager & the broker.
They seldom, if ever, offer any resolution or if they do, will attempt to have you resolve your case for a fraction of what it is actually worth.
We suggest that if you think there is a problem with the way your account has been handled, or if you have had your claim “denied”, talk to an experienced securities attorney.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is the agency that licenses and regulates stockbrokers and brokerage firms. FINRA requires brokers and brokerage firms to report customer complaints and disputes as well as regulatory sanctions. In addition brokers are required to disclose certain financial matters such as personal bankruptcies, judgments and liens.
