From the Desk of Jim Eccleston at Eccleston Law Offices:
A FINRA arbitration panel has denied Wells Fargo’sclaim on a promissory note, and instead has been ordered Wells Fargo to pay the adviser, Michael Hawkes, $925,000 in compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees.
The rep claimed that he was forced to resign based on false allegations that he had forged a client signature, and that the firm had retaliated against him by placing defamatory remarks on his CRD.
