Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas Annuity Loss Attorney Team are representing CB Life Annuity Investors in Massachusetts Against Citizens Securities

Broker-Dealer Allegedly Solicited Investors in The Bay State To Invest Beyond Insurance Cap

If you are a Massachusetts investor who suffered losses after you were marketed and sold Colorado Bankers Life Insurance annuities by a Citizens Securities broker, please contact Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas (investorlawyers.com) today. It has come to our attention that registered representatives from that broker-dealer may not only have allegedly unsuitably recommended CB Life annuities to many investors in this state, including plenty of seniors and retirees, but also, it appears that these brokers purportedly encouraged them to invest money beyond the $250,000 insurance cap allowed. This has left many investors with serious investment losses and limited options for financial recovery now that Colorado Bankers Life Insurance has gone into rehabilitation and its owner Greg Lindberg is accused of more criminal fraud charges.

Why Colorado Bankers Life Insurance And Bankers Life Insurance Investors Should Continue To Explore Their Legal Options

Greg Lindberg’s Proposal To Buy Policies From Investors Is Not A Guarantee of Financial Recovery

Beleaguered insurer Greg Lindberg—the owner of Colorado Bankers Life Insurance, Bankers Life Insurance Company (BLIC), Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda), and a number of other insurance companies—is now asking a North Carolina court to allow him to use the $40M meant to cover his personal tax liabilities from the sale of one of his companies to buy annuities from CBLI and BLIC policyholders who are having financial problems.
