Three Former J.P. Morgan Advisors Prevail In $3 Million Transition Dispute

From the Desk of Jim Eccleston at Eccleston Law:

A Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) arbitration panel has denied J.P. Morgan’s claims against three former advisors who allegedly had violated their non-solicitation agreements while transferring to a new firm. 

J.P. Morgan was seeking nearly $3 million in damages against the former advisors. 

The Chicago-based arbitrators ruled in favor of the advisors after 10 hearing sessions, and J.P. Morgan was ordered to cover the $14,625 bill for the dispute.
