Herbert Messick: $100K Complaint Against Quantum Econometrics Broker

Whittier, California broker and financial advisor Herbert Messick (CRD# 332656) allegedly breached his fiduciary duty to a customer, according to a pending investor complaint.

Filed in March 2022, the pending investor complaint disclosed in Mr. Messick’s BrokerCheck report alleges that as a representative of Cetera Advisor Networks, he breached his fiduciary duty in relation to investments in common and preferred stock. (For reference, the fiduciary standard requires financial advisors to place the client’s interests above their own, fully disclose conflicts of interest, and operate in good faith and with loyalty to the customer; this is similar to but distinct from the suitability standard that applies to brokers.) The pending complaint alleges damages of $102,546.46
