HT Legal Ltd, a front-runner in managing financial services claims, today announces a pivotal success with their 11th victorious claim on behalf of clients against Sequence Financial Management through the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). These claims are linked to investments in The Resort Group, introduced by the unregulated First Pension Review Services, as shown on BBC’s Panorama in July 2016.
“This marks a significant milestone after three years of diligent efforts,” said Tony Carter, Managing Director of HT Legal Ltd.
“While this represents a considerable win, we must remember that thousands of clients who have lost money with financial advisers haven’t come forward yet. Our team of experts simplifies the process. We offer a no-obligation assessment, which clients can schedule on our website, Claimmyloss.co.uk.”
HT Legal Ltd triumphed after an 18-month review by the FSCS, which had initially dismissed all claims. The firm successfully contended that The Resort Group was, in reality, an Unregulated Collective Investment Scheme. In January 2024, the FSCS upheld the first of HT Legal’s client claims.
Despite the extra costs and extensive time commitment required for their appeal, HT Legal have not levied any additional fees on their clients.
Tony added: “We know that some of our competitors have chosen to take more aggressive action which has resulted in their clients having to pay additional charges. We always believed we would see a positive outcome and wanted to remain focused on our clients getting the best financial result.”
Challenges persist with some 300 clients still affected, and claims ranging from £5,000 to £300,000. Despite the FSCS’s maximum compensation per claim being £85,000, numerous clients may still experience significant financial losses. HT Legal Ltd remains steadfast in their commitment to secure justice for every affected client.
Tony continued: “While we celebrate this victory, our mission continues. We are committed to helping all affected clients get the justice they deserve. We encourage anyone who has lost money with financial advisers to reach out to us for support.”
