Have you lost money with financial advisor William LeBoeuf, formerly with Merrill Lynch, in Miamisburg, Ohio?  We are investigating allegations made by <a href="http://www.finra.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FINRA, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority</a>, against William LeBoeuf. FINRA <a href="https://www.finra.org/sites/default/files/fda_documents/2019064823601%20William%20W.%20LeBoeuf%20CRD%202464080%20AWC%20sl.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">suspended</a> LeBoeuf from the securities industry for one year and fined him $12,500.  FINRA was investigating LeBoeuf for allegations that he engaged in undisclosed outside business activities and private securities transactions.</p>


<p>LeBoeuf allegedly created Accelerate Capital Partners LLC, the purpose of which was to facilitate investments in another company.  LeBoeuf also solicited investments in the company to 12 investors.  In August 2019, three investors invested $750,000 in the company’s promissory notes.</p>


<p>William LeBoeuf was a financial advisor and registered representative of Merrill Lynch from 2009 to March 2019.  He was also with Cetera Advisor Networks from March 2019 to December 2019.  He worked at a branch office in Miamisburg, Ohio.  He was also terminated by Cetera Advisor Networks in 2019, and he was also a board member of Consumer Optix.</p>


<p>Brokerage firms like Merrill Lynch and Cetera Advisor Networks have a responsibility to adequately supervise all representatives who are registered through their firm.  Brokerage firms also must take steps to ensure that their financial advisors follow all securities rules and regulations, as well as internal firm policies.  When brokerage firms fail to adequately supervise their registered representatives, they may be liable for investment losses sustained by customers.</p>


<p>Israels & Neuman PLC is a securities and investment fraud law firm with offices in Denver, Colorado; Ann Arbor, Michigan; Phoenix, Arizona; and Seattle, Washington.  We represent investors in <a href="http://www.finra.org/arbitration-and-mediation" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FINRA arbitration</a> proceedings in all 50 states, including investors in Ohio.

<strong> </strong></p>


<p>We are currently investigating allegations made against Westpark Capital, a Los Angeles, California-based securities brokerage firm.  FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) brought a <a href="https://www.finra.org/sites/default/files/fda_documents/2017054381603%20WestPark%20Capital%2C%20Inc.%20CRD%2039914%2C%20Richard%20A.%20Rappaport%20CRD%201885122%20AWC%20jlg.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">regulatory action</a> against Westpark Capital.  FINRA alleged that Westpark Capital issued $3.9 million in promissory notes of its parent company, Westpark Capital Financial Services, and made negligent misrepresentations and omissions in connection with this offering.</p>


<p>To settle these allegations, Westpark Capital agreed to pay a $250,000 fine and was also ordered to offer recission of the promissory notes to 19 investors.  Moreover, Richard Rappaport, the firm’s CEO, was fined $30,000 and suspended in all capacities by FINRA for 4 months and in a principal capacity for 15 months.</p>
