William Athas Red Flags & Your Rights As An Investor

Of course, William Athas did not admit to any of the allegations. But regardless of whether an arbitration award was entered, a settlement occurred, or the customer complaint is still pending, the allegations made by customers are red flags which should put all current and former customers of William Athas at SW Financial and Worden Capital Management LLC on alert to review carefully the activity and performance of their accounts and question whether William Athas has engaged in any stockbroker misconduct that may have caused them investment losses. The large number of customer complaints at SW Financial and Worden Capital Management LLC also raises questions about the brokerage firms’ supervisory practices.
