John Mickelson Customer Complaints

He has been the subject of two customer complaints in 2025, according to his CRD report:

February 2025. “Statement of Claim alleges an investment recommendation was made for the purpose of generating high commissions and fees that Claimants were deprived of the ability to generate reasonable returns that would have been received in a diversified portfolio. The representative discussed the nature of the investment within their asset mix, the long-term horizon, the risks associated with investing in energy at the time of purchase. There were dozens of meetings with our office starting September of 2014 to present where the energy investment was thoroughly discussed as part of their overall assessment of their finances. The representative did not have a choice in what percentage of commissions were paid.” The case is currently pending. The complaint took place while he was registered with Cambridge Investment Research, Inc.

January 2025. “The Statement of Claim alleges speculative alternative investment were recommended for the purpose of generating high commissions and fees. The representative discussed the nature of the investment, the long-term horizon, the risks associated with investing in energy at the time of purchase. There were literally dozens of meetings with our office between March 23, 2014, and Feb 29, 2024, where the energy investment was thoroughly discussed.” The case is currently pending. The complaint took place while he was registered with Cambridge Investment Research, Inc.
