Do I have a suit against for allowing my husband to open up a fraudulent account regarding the business that I solely own?
Question Details:
A well known bank allowed my soon to be ex-husband to open up a business account in my company's name. I brought this to their attention and they said they could not discuss it with me after telling me my name was not on the account; there was nothing they could do to rectify the situation. This even after showing them my LLC paperwork. I am sole owner of my business and it states that on my LLC documentation. Do I have a case against this bank? If so, what do I need to do to get this going? I have tried going to the bank but they would not help. They told me my lawyer would have to handle it. I have tried filing a police report but the police said it was a civil matter because it was my (soon-to-be ex)-husband who opened the business account fradulently.
You need to file a complaint with your state attorney general and the agency who regulates this bank. Then you need to push and push. Further, get state and federal senators involved and you may need indeed to hire an attorney to sue your soon to be ex-husband and the bank and bank employees and then make them pay for damages, make them fix your credit report and make them pay for your attorney's fees.
