The securities attorneys at The Law Office of David Liebrader have opened an investigation into the securities related conduct of Ron Harrod, a FINRA registered representative formerly with Steelpoint Securities in San Diego, CA.
Ron Harrod has been FINRA licensed to sell securities for 58 years, and spent the last five years with Steelpoint Securities in Corona Del Mar, CA, where he was licensed to sell securities in California. In October, 2015 Steelpoint Securities filed a notice indicating Harrod was no longer employed with the firm, and since then he has not joined another firm. Prior to joining Steelpoint Securities, Harrod was registered with WBB Securities in Corona Del Mar, Ca. He was also affiliated with Pacific American Securities out of San Diego, CA. FINRA expelled Pacific American from membership in 2012.
FINRA maintains a database that the public can access to check the credentials of their financial advisors. The website, also known as broker check contains a listing for Ron Harrod, who was the subject of a customer complaint that resulted in an arbitration award again the firm.
The arbitration award issued in January, 2016 by a three member FINRA panel in Los Angeles, CA awarded a customer $100,000 for a claim originally brought against Ron Harrod and Steelpoint Securities. Harrod filed for bankruptcy protection in June, 2015, and the case proceeded against Steelpoint, and another registered representative.
The underlying claim involved gold and silver investments, as well as investments into energy companies. The claims asserted were for breach of fiduciary duty and negligence in recommending the investments.
