alleges the following:

1. Plaintiff is an individual licensed as an attorney at law in New York, as well as in

other jurisdictions. Plaintiff also holds a Commercial Pilot license issued by the Federal

Aviation Administration. At all times relevant to the matters alleged herein, Plaintiff

concentrated his practice on international aviation-related litigation. Until March 18, 2013,

Plaintiff was employed as a Senior Counsel at the law firm of Clyde & Co US LLP in

Manhattan, and worked in its Aviation Group. Although Defendant Clyde & Co US LLP paid

2. At all times relevant to the matters alleged herein, Defendant Diane Westwood

Wilson (Wilson) was a Senior Equity Partner of Defendant Clyde & Co US LLP working in

its New York City office, and acted as an authorized agent of Defendant Clyde & Co US LLP.

Upon information and belief, Wilson was also an authorized agent of Defendant Clyde & Co

LLP.

3. At all times relevant to the matters alleged herein, Defendant Sharon Holahan

(Holahan) was employed as an Executive Vice President and Director of Claims at Defendant

Global Aerospace, Inc. (Global), working from its corporate offices in Parsippany, New

Jersey, and acted as an authorized agent of Global. Upon information and belief, Holahan owns

a second residence in New York, lives several weeks a year in New York, is an active member

of the New York Bar, and regularly and purposefully transacts business with persons and

entities in New York in the conduct of her business affairs, including, inter alia, participating in

business meetings and continuing legal education panels in New York City and hiring and

managing defense attorneys there to defend parties who are insured by underwriters for whom

Global acts as pool manager and/or claims manager (such parties are hereinafter referred to as

Globals insureds).

4. Defendant Clyde & Co US LLP (Clyde US) is a Delaware limited liability

partnership with its principal executive office located at 405 Lexington Avenue, New York,

New York. Clyde US also has offices in Florham Park, New Jersey and San Francisco,

California.

5. Defendant Clyde & Co LLP (Clyde UK) is a United Kingdom Limited Liability

Partnership organized in England and registered at Companies House pursuant to the

Companies Act 2006 and/or other similar legislation. Upon information and belief, Clyde UK

3

provides oversight, management, personnel, monetary resources, and infrastructure such as

computer network equipment and management, marketing support, Human Resources

management and other essential services to its affiliated offices around the world, including

those in the United States and Canada. Upon information and belief, Clyde UK regularly and

purposefully transacts business in New York, including overseeing the management of Clyde

USs New York office and holding meetings and conferences in New York City. The Managing

Partner of Clyde US, who is based in New York, serves on the Managing Board of Clyde UK,

and another member of that Managing Board who is a Partner of Clyde UK oversees the

operations of Clyde US in the United States as well as the operations of the Canadian offices in

Toronto and Montreal. Income derived from the operations of Clyde US in New York is

aggregated with income derived from Clyde UKs other offices and reported by Clyde UK as

the income of Clyde UK to various trade journals and other media.

6. Global is a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business and

corporate offices in Parsippany, New Jersey. Global is manager of a pool of insurers that

underwrite aviation and aerospace risks. Global regularly and purposefully transacts business in

the state of New York, including New York City, by, inter alia, sending its employees there to

solicit insurance business and participate in business meetings and continuing legal education

seminars, and hiring and managing defense attorneys there to defend claims against its insureds.

7. In late 2010, prior to accepting employment at the New York office of Clyde US,

Plaintiff was employed as an Assistant Vice President and Claims Attorney at Global, handling

claims for The Boeing Company, GE Aviation, and Intel.

8. Plaintiff left Global at the end of January 2011 and began work at the New York

office of Clyde US on February 1, 2011, at an annual salary of $275,000.

4

9. Plaintiff maintained excellent relations with his colleagues at Global through the

date of his departure on January 31, 2011, and had received assurances from claims handlers

there that they were likely to hire him on future aviation cases.

10. Globals Claims Department, which is managed by Holahan, routinely hires

attorneys in New York City and elsewhere to defend its insureds in litigation. A number of in-

house Claims Attorneys and other claims handlers work under Holahan and middle managers

whose duties are overseen by Holahan. Those Claims Attorneys and other claims handlers

regularly hire attorneys to work on cases that are under their management.

11. Karen DAmico (DAmico), who is employed as a Vice President and Claims

Attorney at Global, and who works directly under Holahan in the Claims Department, told

Plaintiff in 2011 that she intended to hire Plaintiff to work on cases under her management in

the future. DAmico and Plaintiff had worked together on cases when Plaintiff was working at

Global.

12. After starting work with Clyde US, Plaintiff organized and participated in a

number of client entertainment events for Globals Claims Department personnel, including a

dinner in Manhattan during the summer of 2011 and several lunches in New Jersey. Plaintiff

also attended the wedding of one of Globals Claims Attorneys in New Jersey in November of

2011.

13. Shortly after the aforementioned dinner in Manhattan, a member of Globals

Legal Department who had attended the dinner contacted Clyde US about a legal matter and

subsequently retained Plaintiff to handle the matter.

14. From the date of his employment by Clyde US to summer 2011, Plaintiff worked

closely with Wilson on some cases that were under her control. By the summer of 2011, if not

5

earlier, Plaintiff had developed concerns about the manner in which Wilson handled her cases

and her methods of practicing law in general.

15. Plaintiff kept notes of his concerns about Wilson in a document stored on the H:

Drive of his computer. Those notes included references to instances in which Plaintiff felt that

Wilson was overbilling client files for unnecessary and/or inefficient work. During his initial

orientation at the firm in February, 2011, the then-Director of Information Technology at the

office (who was a close friend of Wilsons) had told Plaintiff that only Plaintiff and the IT

Department had password access to his H: Drive, and that it was not on the system,

meaning the firms server. Plaintiff discovered later, in 2013, that what he had been told about

the H: Drive was false: The current management of the IT Department told Plaintiff in early

2013 that when the offices computer system had been installed in 2006, under Wilsons

direction as the then Managing Partner, Wilson had instructed the computer network installer to

provide her with secret backdoor access to every employees H: Drive files, and had obtained

such access. Upon information and belief, this was done so that she could secretly read the

contents of documents that employees stored there. Clyde US and Clyde UKs employees knew

of Wilsons secret backdoor access to Plaintiffs documents but willfully kept it secret from

Plaintiff until he caused them to reveal it in early 2013. Upon information and belief, the IT

employee who revealed the information to Plaintiff was subsequently reprimanded by his

superior and/or Clyde USs Director of Human Resources, Carolyn Babula, for revealing those

facts to Plaintiff.

16. On June 29, 2011, Wilson reprimanded Plaintiff and said that he was out of line

for complying with his obligations to a client imposed by New York Rule of Professional

Conduct 1.4(a)(iii). Plaintiff subsequently met with the new Managing Partner of Clyde US,

6

Michael Knoerzer, and told him that he could no longer work with Wilson in good conscience.

Knoerzer agreed that Plaintiff would no longer have to work with Wilson.

17. Shortly thereafter, Wilson came to Plaintiffs office and pleaded with him to

remain on the matter in which she had reprimanded him. Plaintiff declined to do so.

18. Subsequently, on or about September 16, 2011, DAmico hired Plaintiff to

provide services to Global in connection with the defense of one of its insureds, Air 1st Aviation

Companies, Inc. (Air 1st).

19. With Knoerzers assistance, Plaintiff opened the Air 1st file without designating

Wilson as the responsible partner who would be credited with the dollar amounts billed on the

case. Plaintiff explained to Knoerzer that he did not feel comfortable with Wilson having any

control over the exercise of his professional judgment on behalf of a client. Wilson

subsequently came to Plaintiffs office and complained to Plaintiff that, in her opinion, the file

should have been opened with her as the responsible partner.

20. After retaining Plaintiff, DAmico asked him to review the court record in the Air

1st litigation, plus certain discovery and other background information such as witness and party

depositions, the NTSB docket from the investigation of the crash that precipitated the litigation,

and technical documents, and to render a report to her of his findings and conclusions about the

current posture of the case, which was being defended by another attorney. At that time, the Air

1st litigation had been ongoing for nearly a decade, had had an interlocutory appeal, and

concerned an aircraft model on which the FAA had ordered multiple special safety reviews to be

conducted due to numerous crashes, so the amount of materials Plaintiff had to review were

voluminous. Plaintiff performed the review that DAmico requested, and subsequently rendered

a comprehensive report to DAmico on December 2, 2011.

7

21. All of the work that Plaintiff performed on the Air 1st matter had been requested

and authorized by DAmico, at a billing rate of which she was aware.

22. Clyde US subsequently billed DAmico for the work performed by Plaintiff, and

DAmico authorized payment of the bill by Global. Global paid the bill without objection, and

DAmico continued to provide new information on developments in the Air 1st litigation to

Plaintiff and to seek Plaintiffs advice on the case throughout 2012.

23. In May of 2012, Clyde USs Human Resources Director, Carolyn Babula,

instructed Plaintiff to fill out a form titled Senior Counsel Self Review/Career Development

Review (CDR)/2010-2011 (the CDR Form). Although the title of the CDR Form referenced

the firms prior fiscal year, i.e., 2010-2011, the CDR Forms questions asked Plaintiff to review

his performance during fiscal year 2011-2012. Babula informed Plaintiff that completion and

return of the form was a necessary prerequisite to a review of Plaintiffs salary for fiscal year

2012-2013.

24. The CDR Form was labeled PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL in large red letters

near the top of its cover page.

25. Plaintiff completed the CDR Form as instructed and returned it to Babula in hard

copy format on or about May 17, 2012. At that time, Plaintiff requested that the CDR Form not

be shown to Wilson, because Plaintiff no longer worked with Wilson, and because Wilson had

complained about the fact that the Air 1st matter had been credited to him and not her. The CDR

Form contained statements regarding Plaintiffs billings on the Air 1st matter, and Plaintiff did

not wish to incur additional complaints from Wilson about those billings. Babula agreed with

Plaintiff that Wilson would not be allowed access to the CDR Form.

8

26. In particular, Plaintiff had stated the following in response to one of the questions

on the CDR: . . . I managed to bring in five new matters (aviation and commercial) that have

produced [a stated amount] in billings the Firm would not otherwise have had. The aviation

matters Plaintiff referenced were the Air 1st matter and the previous matter from Global.

27. Plaintiff saved a copy of the CDR Form on his H: Drive prior to printing it and

delivering the printed copy to the Babula. Upon information and belief, Wilson used her secret

backdoor access to Plaintiffs H: Drive at a later date to obtain a copy of the CDR Form

surreptitiously, as well as a copy of Plaintiffs notes about his concerns with her handling of her

cases, all without Plaintiffs knowledge or consent.

28. Upon information and belief, Wilson shared the contents of the confidential CDR

Form with Holahan and told Holahan that Plaintiff had overbilled and churned the file on

the Air 1st matter. Plaintiff did not discover that Wilson had done so until after December 4,

2012. Those statements were untrue, and, upon information and belief, Wilson made them

knowing that they were false, for the purpose of injuring Plaintiffs reputation with Global.

29. On December 4, 2012, DAmico conducted a conference call with Plaintiff and

another attorney working for Global on the Air 1st litigation. During the call, DAmico

instructed Plaintiff to perform a substantial amount of additional work to prepare the case for a

certain pretrial exercise. Plaintiff agreed to perform the work within the next several weeks, and

DAmico informed Plaintiff that Plaintiff would be participating in the pretrial exercise that was

to be scheduled at some point in the future, after the requested preparatory work was done.

30. Upon information and belief, on December 4, 2012 shortly after the conference

call had concluded, Holahan met with DAmico and instructed DAmico to tell Plaintiff not to

do the preparatory work that she had assigned to him. Holahan also told DAmico that

9

DAmico should not give any more work to Plaintiff. When DAmico protested that she needed

Plaintiffs insight as a pilot to assist with the defense of the case, Holahan handed DAmico a

basic text on piloting and told DAmico to read it instead of seeking advice from Plaintiff.

Following Holahans instructions, DAmico sent an email to Plaintiff on December 4, 2012

telling him not to do the work.

31. Upon information and belief, also on December 4, 2012, Holahan told Angela

Savino (Savino), another Vice President working in the Claims Department of Global, that

Plaintiff had churned the file on the Air 1st matter. Holahan knew that statement would be

injurious to Plaintiff. Upon information and belief, Holahan told Savino during the same

conversation that DAmico should not have hired Plaintiff at all, and that Plaintiff had

improperly taken credit for billings on the Air 1st case that should have been credited to Diane

[Wilson]. The aforesaid statements by Holahan were false, and Holahan made them with

knowledge of their falsity, with reckless disregard for their truth or falsity, or after negligently

failing to ascertain their truth or falsity. In addition, upon information and belief, Holahan used

the confidential information in the CDR Form that she had received from Wilson, and which

both Wilson and Holahan knew to be confidential, to disparage Plaintiff by quoting the language

where he took credit for bringing in work from Global that the Firm would not otherwise have

had.

32. Upon information and belief, Holahan made the aforesaid false statements to

DAmico and Savino in furtherance of her own personal interests, and not in furtherance of the

corporate interests of Global.

33. Although Savino also works within the Global Claims Department, she is

assigned to a single large insured and hires defense counsel from a short list of counsel

10

approved by that insured, a list that does not include Plaintiff or Clyde US. Savino therefore

had no business interest in Plaintiffs retention by DAmico, and relayed the false statements to

DAmico in furtherance of her own personal interests and not in furtherance of the corporate

interests of Global. Alternatively, Savino relayed the statements as Holahans agent.

34. Upon information and belief, Holahan published the aforesaid statements with the

knowledge and expectation that Savino would relay them to DAmico, in order to damage

Plaintiffs reputation with DAmico and his career, and to harm his standing at his place of

employment.

35. Upon information and belief, Savino knew that the statements she repeated to

DAmico were false, or she acted with reckless disregard for their truth or falsity, or after

negligently failing to ascertain their truth or falsity.

36. Upon information and belief, Holahan wanted DAmico to terminate the attorney-

client relationship between Plaintiff and Global. When DAmico subsequently failed or refused

to do so, Holahan reassigned the Air 1st case to another claims handler within the Claims

Department, Rick Polesak, and, upon information and belief, instructed him to fire Plaintiff.

37. Polesak, following Holahans order and acting in the capacity of her authorized

agent, fired Plaintiff from the Air 1st matter on March 5, 2013.

38. Plaintiff reported to Knoerzer the content of Polesaks telephone call in an email

on or about March 5, 2013. At that time, Knoerzer was attending management or other

meetings at Clyde UKs offices in London.

39. Shortly after sending the email to Knoerzer, Plaintiff received a telephone call

from Charlie Keeling, Clyde UKs Global Director of Human Resources. Keeling informed

Plaintiff during that call that the subject matter of Plaintiffs recent email was being discussed in

11

London by Keeling, Knoerzer, and James Burns, a UK Solicitor who served at the time as Clyde

UKs head of U.S. operations. Both Keeling and Burns are based in London, at Clyde UKs

main office.

40. On March 18, 2013, after Knoerzers return to the United States, Knoerzer called

Plaintiff into a meeting at the New York office. Keeling, who had flown over from London,

was also in attendance at that meeting. Knoerzer and Keeling informed Plaintiff that his

employment was terminated as of that day. Knoerzer and Keeling attempted to base the firing

on a false scenario they had concocted, but Knoerzer admitted during that meeting that the

termination was attributable to Plaintiffs failure to maintain a steady flow of work from Global.

41. Upon information and belief, Wilson, Holahan and Savino willfully conspired to

damage Plaintiffs professional reputation, his business relationship with DAmico, his standing

and employment at Clyde US, and his future economic prospects in his field of practice, through

the use of defamation, misrepresentation, deceit, and the unauthorized use of confidential

information.

42. In the absence of their improper and defamatory actions, Plaintiff would have

continued deriving economic advantage from working on the Air 1st litigation, and would have

derived economic advantage from future assignments from DAmico and others at Global,

which would have led to his advancement at Clyde US and in his career in general.

43. Wilsons actions were intentional and were actuated by malice, or were

accompanied by wanton and willful disregard of Plaintiffs rights and interests.

44. Upon information and belief, Holahans actions were actuated by malice, or were

accompanied by wanton and willful disregard of Plaintiffs rights and interests.

12

45. Upon information and belief, Savinos actions were actuated by malice, or were

accompanied by wanton and willful disregard of Plaintiffs rights and interests.

46. As a result of the aforementioned actions, Plaintiff has suffered harm and special

damages and will continue to suffer harm in the future, including, without limitation:

a. Harm to his reputation generally;

b. Harm to his reputation in the relevant legal community;

c. Harm to his reputation in the aviation insurance community, which interferes with

his ability to obtain work from sources other than Global;

d. Loss of billings on the Air 1st matter, that would have been used to calculate his

entitlement to bonuses and advancement to partnership within the firm;

e. Loss of billings and hours from future assignments from DAmico and others at

Global, that would have been used to calculate his entitlement to bonuses and

advancement to partnership within the firm;

f. Loss of his employment, salary and benefits, in an amount to be determined

exceeding the sum of $5,000,000; and

g. Costs associated with Plaintiffs factual investigation, relocation and replacement

of lost benefits, in an amount not less than $25,000;

Altogether amounting to losses to Plaintiff in a total amount to be determined exceeding the sum

of $5,025,000.

47. Wilson performed the aforementioned actions and made the aforesaid false

statements in the ordinary course of conducting her regular duties for Clyde US and Clyde UK,

and the making of them was within the scope of her responsibilities for Clyde US and Clyde

UK. In the alternative, Wilson performed and made them with the apparent authority of Clyde

13

US and Clyde UK, as manifested by those Defendants holding her out as their authorized Senior

Equity Partner and agent.

48. Holahan performed the aforementioned actions and made the aforesaid false

statements in the ordinary course of conducting her regular duties for Global, and the making of

them was within the scope of her responsibilities for Global. In the alternative, Holahan made

them with the apparent authority of Global, as manifested by that Defendant holding her out as

its authorized Executive Vice President and agent.

49. Savino performed the aforementioned actions and made the aforesaid false

statements in the ordinary course of conducting her regular duties for Global, and the making of

them was within the scope of her responsibilities for Global. In the alternative, Savino made

them with the apparent authority of Global, as manifested by that Defendant holding her out as

its authorized Vice President and agent.

50. Following Plaintiffs termination on March 18, 2013, Clyde US and Clyde UK

continued for at least the next ten weeks to make use of Plaintiffs portrait, name, and

biographical information on their jointly-maintained Web site, which is used for the purpose of

advertising their services to existing and potential clients worldwide, including within the State

of New York. They also improperly kept Plaintiffs email account active for a similar amount

of time, if not longer, and adjusted its settings so that it automatically sent an Out of Office

message to senders, including potential clients of Plaintiff, that informed the senders, in a

message intentionally designed to appear as though Plaintiff had written it, that they should

instead speak to Andrew Harakas, who heads the Aviation Group in the United States for Clyde

US and Clyde UK. Upon information and belief, Clyde US and Clyde UK did so with the intent

of redirecting for themselves any business that otherwise would have reached Plaintiff after his

14

termination. Clyde US and Clyde UK never obtained Plaintiffs written (or oral) consent to use

his name, image, or other information personal to him in their marketing efforts after his

termination. Clyde US and Clyde UK have thereby falsely, knowingly and willfully made use

of Plaintiffs image and name in violation of his protected rights of privacy and publicity, and in

violation of New York Civil Rights Laws, Section 50. By falsely claiming that Plaintiff is still

employed by them, Clyde US and Clyde UK created confusion that has damaged Plaintiffs

ability to obtain other work.

COUNT I: DEFAMATION

51. Plaintiff hereby repeats and realleges the allegations of Paragraphs 1 through 50

as though they were set forth fully herein.

52. Wilsons and Holahans published false statements as detailed above constitute

defamation of Plaintiff, which has caused Plaintiff substantial injury as detailed in Paragraph 46

of this Complaint.

53. Wilson and Holahan are liable to Plaintiff, jointly and severally, for compensatory

and punitive damages as a result of the defamation.

54. Since Wilsons acts of defamation were within the scope of her duties to Clyde

US and Clyde UK, Clyde US and Clyde UK are liable, jointly and severally, for Wilsons

actions and for compensatory and punitive damages under the doctrine of respondeat superior.

55. Since Holahans and Savinos acts of defamation were within the scope of their

employment at Global, Global is liable to Plaintiff for their actions and for compensatory and

punitive damages under the doctrine of respondeat superior.

COUNT II: VIOLATION OF PLAINTIFFS RIGHTS

OF PRIVACY AND PUBLICITY AND CIVIL RIGHTS LAW SECTION 50 (CLYDE US AND CLYDE UK ONLY)

15

56. Plaintiff hereby repeats and realleges the allegations of Paragraphs 1 through 50

as though they were set forth fully herein.

57. Clyde USs and Clyde UKs use of Plaintiffs portrait and biographical

information in its advertising media after Plaintiffs termination without Plaintiffs written

consent, violates Plaintiffs rights of privacy and publicity, and is unlawful under New York

Civil Rights Law, Section 50.

58. Plaintiff has been harmed by the violations of his rights of privacy and publicity,

and the violation of Section 50, by the loss of business and business opportunities, in an amount

to be determined, in excess of this Courts minimum jurisdictional limit.

59. Due to their knowing and willful violation of Plaintiffs rights, Clyde US and

Clyde UK are liable to Plaintiff for compensatory and exemplary damages pursuant to New

York Civil Rights Law, Section 51.

60. In addition, or in the alternative, Clyde US and Clyde UK are liable to Plaintiff

for compensatory and exemplary damages under the common law of New York, and the

common and statutory laws of the jurisdictions from which their online advertisements are

capable of being viewed by existing and potential clients of Clyde US, Clyde UK and/or

Plaintiff.

DEMAND

WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands judgment against Wilson, Holahan, Clyde US, Clyde

UK and Global, jointly and severally, for compensatory damages in an amount to be determined

at trial, not less than Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000), plus punitive/exemplary damages in an

16

amount to be determined at trial, plus interest from December 4, 2012, costs and such other relief

as the Court finds to be just and proper.
