The JLG Experience
Our experienced team has helped many advisors sidestep common pitfalls and avoid unnecessary legal risks during the transition process. Working with specialized legal counsel to put a customized legal plan in place before you make a move is imperative, regardless of whether you’re leaving a Broker Protocol or non-Broker Protocol firm, since litigation can result from not adhering to the regulatory framework involved. If you’re changing firms, we can advise on best practices and strategize on when it comes to how and when to inform your clients of your move. Instead of risking costly legal action by informing clients of your pending move, Jacko Law Group can develop a post-move client-retention communication plan to help you articulate how investors may benefit by moving assets to your new firm.[ctabutton]
