Hospitality Investors Trust REIT Investor Alert: Goldman Scarlato & Penny Investor Rights Attorneys Evaluate Potential Claims on Behalf of HIT REIT Investors

PHILADELPHIA and CLEVELAND, June 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The investor rights attorneys at Goldman Scarlato & Penny, PC law firm ("GSP") are evaluating potential investment loss recovery options on behalf of investors who lost money in Hospitality Investors Trust Inc, previously known as American Realty Capital Hospitality Trust ("HIT REIT"), following HIT REIT's recent bankruptcy filing. The GSP attorneys already represent other HIT REIT investors and have been pursuing claims on their behalf against securities brokerage firms that improperly recommended HIT REIT and other problematic investments to their customers.

HIT REIT has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the District of Delaware Bankruptcy Court in May 2021. According to its voluntary petition, HIT REIT was seeking to restructure $1.3 billion in unsecured debt. On June 23, 2021, the Court approved HIT REIT's restructuring plan.

HIT REIT was created in 2013. It was sponsored by Nicholas Schorsch's AR Capital. In 2017, AR Capital's CFO Brian Block was sentenced to prison in connection with alleged accounting improprieties. Two years later, AR Capital, Schorsch, and Block were charged by the Securities and Exchange Commission with violations of the securities laws and improper conduct. Thereafter, AR Capital agreed to pay $60 Million to settle the Commission's charges.
