EmpiresX Ponzi Scheme Litigation

EmpiresX is a web-based platform that was presented to consumers throughout South Florida and South America as an “opportunity to participate in the best experience of investing in a safe and efficient platform,” which purportedly utilized an algorithmic trading bot that utilized artificial intelligence to generate guaranteed returns of 1% per day through its day trading activities in the cryptocurrency and other financial markets. When it was revealed that the EmpiresX platform was in fact a Ponzi Scheme, attorneys Adam M. Moskowitz, Joseph M. Kaye and Barbara C. Lewis filed a class action lawsuit alongside other co-lead counsel to seek compensation for these defrauded investors. A preliminary approval for class action settlement was recently granted.

The Moskowitz Law Firm immediately sought the appointment of a Receiver to take control of the EmpiresX business entities in order to ensure that assets are located, marshalled, and preserved to potentially reimburse defrauded investors.

Mortgage Convenience Fee Litigation

Adam M. Moskowitz and Howard M. Bushman, partners at The Moskowitz Law Firm in Coral Gables, have recently secured $12.5 million to settle a nationwide class action against PHH Mortgage Corp. and OCWEN Loan Servicing. The Firm represented homeowners who were subjected to abusive collection practices via “convenience”and “processing” fees. This mediated settlement could be a framework for settlements with other companies in numerous pending class actions nationwide. Read the Motion for Preliminary Approval of Settlement.

Adam M. Moskowitz and his team have filed various suits in federal court against the largest mortgage servicers in the country for claims that servicers are unfairly charging “convenience fees” for homeowners to make mortgage payments over the phone or online. These “convenience fees” are not authorized by the mortgage contracts or existing laws and are therefore violative of various federal and state consumer protection laws.

The Moskowitz Law Firm and its partners seek to represent several statewide and nationwide classes of homeowners against Select Portfolio Servicing, PennyMac, Mr. Cooper, LoanCare, Rushmore, Ocwen, and others. If you are a homeowner and have been charged a fee for making a mortgage payment over the phone or online, we would like to speak with you about your experience, particularly if you are a Florida homeowner.

1 Global Investor Class Action Cases

When 1 Global Capital, a troubled merchant cash advance business, filed for a $300 million bankruptcy in July 2018, the SEC immediately initiated civil enforcement proceedings related to its sale of unregistered securities. The Moskowitz Law Firm and Bonnet, Friedman, Fairbourn & Balint PC, were the first firms in the country to bring multiple class action lawsuits on behalf of 1 Global’s investors against a variety of parties who participated in the company’s illegal sale of unregistered securities. The Firm has successfully settled with over 35 defendants, securing millions of dollars in compensation for these investors.

The Moskowitz Law Firm took an innovative approach in this case, working with counsel for the Debtors and the Creditors’ Committee to assure that investors’ interests were put first in the bankruptcy proceedings. As a consequence of these efforts, the Firm achieved multimillion dollar settlements with many of 1 Global’s brokers, as well as its law firm. Litigation continues, as the Firm pursues additional individuals and entities who may be liable to these investors.

Judge William Thomas, of the Complex Business Division of the Miami-Dade Circuit Court, recently granted preliminary approval for eight proposed settlements between thousands of investors and broker/agents, regarding the purchase of unregistered securities from 1 Global. A final hearing of approval is set before Judge Thomas and the Honorable Robert Mark in federal bankruptcy court. The Moskowitz Firm will continue to coordinate settlements with the Special Counsel for the Bankruptcy Estate. Working with The Moskowitz Firm are Jeff Sonn as well as Michael Budwick and Sol Genet of Meland, Russin & Budwick.
