In 2012 Donahoo & Associates recovered over $6.325 million on behalf of 70 individuals who invested in a private investment program which was the subject of a SEC Investigation which exposed a fraudulent Ponzi scheme. The investors sued a national life insurance company who issued collateral assignments used by the investment company, Diversified Lending Group, Inc. to “guarantee” the private investments. Donahoo & Associates brought claims against the life insurance company for “aiding and abetting” the perpetrators of the Ponzi scheme.
