Michael Tannery Customer Complaints

He has been the subject of four customer complaints between 1997 and 2025, according to his CRD report. The most recent complaint was regarding: 

January 2025. “The statement of claim does not contain any specific information on which investments were not suitable, just that the complexities of the investments were not fully explained and the risks were not disclosed in a fair and balanced manner (including their illiquidity, lack of transparency and the nature of a complex alternative investment such as a REIT).” The customer is seeking $150,000 in damages, and the case is currently pending. 

Pursuant to FINRA Rules, member firms are responsible for supervising a broker’s activities during the time the broker is registered with the firm. Therefore, Independent Financial Group, LLC may be liable for investment or other losses suffered by Michael Tannery’s customers.
