Currently, Mr. DeWitt has one investor complaint disclosed in his official record. This complaint, filed in October 2025, alleges significant regulatory breaches including failure to conduct adequate due diligence and breach of fiduciary duty. The damages sought in the case are unspecified and the matter is pending.

Understanding Fiduciary Standards and Investor Protections

As an investment advisor, Ray DeWitt is held to the fiduciary standard. This means he is required to act in the best interest of his clients—placing their interests above his own, fully disclosing any conflicts of interest, and operating with loyalty and good faith. This fiduciary responsibility goes beyond the “suitability” standard (which applies to brokers) and is meant to build client trust.

When an advisor is alleged to have violated this standard, it raises important questions about investor protection and transparency. Regulatory bodies like FINRA and the SEC closely monitor such activities. In the event of proven violations, an advisor can be required to compensate investors or may face professional discipline and loss of license to operate.

Potential Red Flags for Investors

While no final findings of wrongdoing have been established in Mr. DeWitt’s current complaint, investors should always remain vigilant when certain red flags appear in an advisor’s record:

  • Recent or multiple customer complaints, even if claims are pending
  • Allegations involving breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, or failure to conduct due diligence
  • History of employment with multiple firms in a relatively short time period
  • Any disciplinary actions from regulatory agencies such as FINRA or the SEC

These indicators may warrant a closer review of your investment accounts and transactions involving the advisor. Investors always have the right to ask questions and seek independent review of their accounts.

How to Research a Financial Advisor’s Background

For those seeking greater transparency or who wish to verify information about their broker or investment advisor, several tools are at your disposal:

  • FINRA BrokerCheck – Search by name or CRD# for full regulatory, complaint, and disclosure history
  • SEC’s EDGAR – Review company filings for advisory firms
  • Federal and state court systems – Check for lawsuit history

If you encounter unfamiliar terms or need help interpreting public records, consider consulting with an attorney specializing in investment-related cases.
