Adam Lopez Red Flags & Your Rights as An Investor

Of course, Adam Lopez 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 Adam Lopez at Country Capital Management Company on alert to review carefully the activity and performance of their accounts and question whether Adam Lopez has engaged in any stockbroker misconduct that may have caused them investment losses.
