Fairfield Bay, Arkansas FINRA 8210 Defense Lawyer
Do You Need a FINRA 8210 Defense Attorney? You may have read that Sharon Kay Snow of Fairfield Bay, Arkansas was permanently barred by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) from working in the securities industry because she failed to comply with FINRA Rules 8210 and 2010. From July 1989 until her termination on April 16, 2020, Sharon Kay Snow was registered with Edward Jones in which she served as a senior branch administrator. According to the findings, FINRA sent Snow a request to provide documents and information in connection with their investigation as to why Edward Jones terminated her employment. The findings state that Snow initially cooperated with the investigation then ceased in doing so when she responded to FINRA during a phone call, stating that she allegedly received, acknowledged, and refused to provide the requested information. Although Sharon Kay Snow is no longer associated with any FINRA member firm, she remains subject to FINRA’s jurisdiction. FINRA Rule 8210(a)(1) states, in relevant part, that FINRA staff shall have the right to “require a member, person associated with a member, or any other person subject to FINRA’s jurisdiction to provide information orally, in writing, or electronically…with respect to any matter involved in the investigation, complaint, examination, or proceeding.” A failure to comply with a request for documents and information issued pursuant to FINRA Rule 8210 is a violation of FINRA Rule 2010, which requires associated persons to “observe high standards of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade.” Unfortunately, Sharon Kay Snow might have avoided that FINRA 8210 bar from the securities industry with a skilled and experienced FINRA 8210 defense attorney. It is important, early on, to have a FINRA defense attorney advise you on how not to make matters worse and resolve the dispute with the least amount of sanctions which could range from censures to fines, suspensions, permanent bars, and/or referrals to federal or state prosecutors. You will need an experienced FINRA defense lawyer who not only has knowledge of FINRA rules and procedures, the securities laws and the appropriate sanction for the alleged misconduct but also has an excellent reputation and credibility with the FINRA attorneys to negotiate the best outcome.
