Mike Hensley: $100K Complaint Against Ex-Triad Advisor

Raleigh, North Carolina financial advisor Mike Hensley (CRD# 4052660) allegedly made inadequate disclosures regarding an investment he recommended. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that the former Triad Advisors broker is currently an investment advisor with Guardian Wealth Advisors.

Mr. Hensley’s BrokerCheck report discloses one investor complaint. Filed in August 2023, it alleges that as a representative of Triad Advisors, he did not make “fair and balanced disclosures regarding the high-risk nature of non-traded” real estate products. The pending complaint alleges damages of $100,000.

Investors should be aware that FINRA rules forbid brokers from misrepresenting or omitting material facts relating to the investments and strategies they recommend to their clients. FINRA Rule 2020 states specifically that no broker shall “effect any transaction in, or induce the purchase or sale of, any security by means of any manipulative, deceptive or other fraudulent device or contrivance.” Brokers who fail to accurately represent investments may be held liable for damages.
