The firm is investigation potential claims against ING Financial Partners on behalf of former customers of Rhonda Breard and Breard & Associates Wealth Management.
Breard, who was registered with ING Financial Partners until February 10, 2010, is alleged to have vanished along with millions of dollars of her clients' money. Breard was a licensed broker in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, Washington, West Virginia, and Wyoming. It has been reported that securities regulators and other agencies are investigating Breard's practices. A review of Breard's securities license reveals a history of several customer complaints as well as regulatory actions. These are all potential "red flags" under the law. Under NASD Rules, ING Financial Partners was obligated to properly supervise the practices and activities of Breard during the time that she was registered with the firm. Breard had been registered with ING Financial Partners since February of 2002. Accordingly, ING Financial Partners may be liable for failing to supervise Breard's activities and responsible for compensating investors who lost money investing with Breard.
