Jose Quinones of PFS Investments is Barred

Did you invest in Next Level Holdings through Jose Quinones from Kissimmee, Florida? You may be able to recover money if you suffered losses. The investment fraud law firm of Israels & Neuman is researching claims made by FINRA against Jose Quinones, who previously was an affiliate of PFS Investments.

Allegations by FINRA Against Jose Quinones

Jose Quinones was “permitted to resign” by PFS Investments (also known as Primerica Financial) in December 2024. In a filing with FINRA, PFS Investments alleged that Quinones “was under internal review for potential involvement with an undisclosed outside business activity, Next Level Holdings, at the time he terminated for failure to renew his securities registration. The representative denied involvement in Next Level Holdings.”

That filing led FINRA to start its own investigation into the allegations regarding Quinones and Next Level Holdings. After FINRA sent requests for documents and information to Quinones, he refused to respond, which led to him being barred.

Information on Jose Quinones

From September 2014 to December 2024, Jose Quinones had been a representative of PFS Investments. He was assigned to a Kissimmee, Florida office.

Responsibility for Quinones’s Conduct

Generally, financial advisors must disclose all business activities to their brokerage firm, especially if it involves securities or investments. Failure to disclose outside business activities are often grounds for termination from a firm. Moreover, firms cannot simply rely on disclosures from advisors – they must adequately supervise the advisor’s conduct. If the firm fails to do so, it could be responsible for any investor losses.
