Key Investigation Findings and Red Flags
Our review identified the following disclosures on Mr. Zigmant’s FINRA BrokerCheck profile:
- Employment Separation Disclosure: On May 7, 2026, State Farm reported Mr. Zigmant’s termination. The firm initiated an internal review concerning his handling of funds within employee 401(k) plans. This type of review may reflect concerns about the management or movement of retirement assets and can present risk for plan participants and beneficiaries.
- Criminal Disclosure: On February 7, 2025, authorities in Johnson County District Court in Olathe, Kansas, filed a felony charge against Mr. Zigmant for possession of an opiate, opium, narcotic, or certain stimulant. He entered a not-guilty plea, and the matter remains pending under Case No. JO-2025-CR-000540. The outcome of this case could affect his regulatory standing and suitability to work with investor funds.
These disclosures trigger mandatory reporting to FINRA and require updated regulatory filings. Regulators and investors often view such disclosures as potential red flags relating to misconduct or compliance concerns.

Why Investor Concerns Matter: Regulation Best Interest and Fiduciary Standards
Regulation Best Interest (Reg BI) raised the standard for broker-dealers and financial advisors when recommending securities or investment strategies. Under Reg BI, brokers must place the investor’s interests ahead of their own at the time a recommendation is made. Key obligations include:
- Disclosure: Full transparency regarding fees, product types, and conflicts of interest.
- Care: A duty to exercise diligence, care, and skill by reviewing costs, risks, and alternatives for each recommendation.
- Conflict of Interest: Identification, disclosure, and where possible mitigation or elimination of conflicts that could influence advice.
- Compliance: Maintenance of policies and procedures designed to enforce these obligations and preserve accurate records.
As advocates for investors, our firm uses former defense experience to evaluate not only potential regulatory breaches but also possible breaches of trust.
