The Other Side of Medicine’s Azmi Sharif: Complaint Settles for $500K

An investor complaint against Elhurst, Illinois financial advisor Azmi Sharif (CRD# 2343413) recently settled for $500,000. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that he is a broker and an investment advisor with LPL Financial, doing business as The Other Side of Medicine.

Mr. Sharif’s BrokerCheck report discloses one investor complaint against him. Filed in July 2022, the complaint alleged that as an LPL Financial representative, he misrepresented and recommended an unsuitable private placement investment. In August 2022 the complaint reached a settlement of $500,000.

In a statement included in the complaint’s disclosure, Mr. Sharif defended himself against the allegations. “The settlement was made without any admission of liability whatsoever and to avoid the prospect of arbitration,” he wrote. “Neither I nor my affiliated broker dealer contributed financially to the settlement.”
