<p>
<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>

<p><strong>FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA</strong>
<strong> </strong>Have you lost money with financial advisor John Orlando, formerly with Westpark Capital and now with SW Financial in Fort Lauderdale, Florida?  We are looking into allegations made against John Anthony Orlando. Orlando has been the subject of six customer complaints, four of which were made within the last two years.  The complaints allege losses in private placements sold by Orlando while he was with Westpark Capital and another prior firm.</p>


<p>John Orlando was with Westpark Capital from August 2016 to September 2019.  He has also been with SW Financial from November 2019 to the present and with Newport Coast from March 2015 to August 2016.  He has worked at branch offices in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.</p>


<p>Brokerage firms like Westpark Capital 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 <a href="/practice-areas/failure-to-supervise/" rel="noopener" target="_blank"><strong>fail to adequately supervise</strong></a> their registered representatives, they may be liable for investment losses sustained by customers.</p>
