A $30 million lawsuit filed last Monday alleges a personal injury firm had its clients stolen by two competitors who sent case runners to a pain clinic where they enticed the patients to switch firms.
The law firm Ginarte Gallardo Gonzalez & Winograd, with offices in New York and New Jersey, alleges its clients were lured away with promises of payments of about $2,000 or $3,000, which were paid from a “briefcase full of cash” by lawyer William Schwitzer. The New York Law Journal covered the lawsuit.
