James T. Flynn Broker Misconduct - How Silver Law Can Help If You've Been A Victim
Silver Law Group is investigating former broker James T. Flynn. According to Flynn's FINRA BrokerCheck report, he was based out of the Greenville, South Carolina branches of IFS Securities and Voya Financial Advisors.
