Reid Collins & Tsai LLP is a US law firm established in 2009 with offices in New York City, Austin, Dallas, Washington, D.C., and Montecito. The firm represents plaintiffs in complex civil litigation on a mixed-fee[2] or contingency-fee basis.[3]

Practice areas

Key practice areas include financial fraud, insolvency cases, professional liability, fiduciary litigation, bankruptcy litigation, mediation and whistleblower actions.[4][3][5][6]

History

The firm was founded in November 2009 in Austin with 9 lawyers who had previously worked at Latham & Watkins,[2] Diamond McCarthy[7] and the U.S. Department of Justice[2] with William T. Reid, IV, P. Jason Collins, and Lisa S. Tsai serving as founding partners. Among their first cases were the bankruptcies of Stanford International Bank,[8] Thelen LLP[9] and Cornerstone Ministries Investments.[10] In 2010, hedge fund Highland Capital Management hired the firm to represent their interests in a suit against Credit Suisse on a contingency-fee basis.[11] By the end of 2010, the company had 15 lawyers.[3] In October 2011, RCT partner Marina Marmolejo was appointed as a federal judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas.[12] In 2013, the firm opened a Dallas office with Eric Madden[13][14] and J. Benjamin King as bankruptcy litigation partners,[15][16] joined later by Brandon V. Lewis.[17] In October 2014 the Dallas office moved to Thanksgiving Tower.[18][19] In November 2018, the firm added former Munger, Tolles & Olson partner Marc T.G. Dworsky as a partner.[1][20]

Notable cases

  • In 2012, Reid Collins & Tsai filed a US$100 million lawsuit against singer Shakira on behalf of her ex-boyfriend and former business partner Antonio de la Rua in the New York Supreme Court, seeking to "recover damages" for breach of contract and fiduciary duty.[21][22] The company made similar claims against Shakira in Los Angeles, Switzerland, and the Cayman Islands. All of the lawsuits were ultimately dismissed on forum non conveniens grounds.[23]
  • In 2012, the firm handled several cases for one of their early clients, Highland Financial Partners, settling an alleged "legal malpractice/negligence" suit against Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe.[24][25]
  • In December 2013, the firm filed an $80 million claim against DLA Piper on behalf of its liquidators, claiming the firm helped two associated funds misappropriate millions of dollars[26] (in 2015 the judge dismissed the lawsuit).[27]
  • In 2014, the firm represented Plaintiff Claymore Holdings, LLC, as the assignee of the claims of investment funds managed by Highland Capital Management, LP, in a fraudulent inducement and breach of contract lawsuit against global investment bank Credit Suisse (Claymore Holdings, LLC vs. Credit Suisse AG, et al., Cause No. DC-13-07858, the 134th Judicial District Court of Dallas County, Texas). Following a three-week bench trial, the trial court found that Credit Suisse had breached its contractual obligations, and entered a judgment against it for $287.5 million.[28][29][30] The firm also filed a $1.15 billion suit against Citigroup, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs on behalf of relator Integra REC (largest financial fraud case ever brought by the state of Virginia (Case No. CL14-399)[31][32] resulting in a 2016 $63 million settlement to be paid to the state).[33] The company also resolved claims of corporate mismanagement filed by the former Astrotech Corporation's CFO John Porter against the CEO Thomas Pickens III. The case was subsequently settled.[34][35] The firm also settled a clawback action for $32.2 million on behalf of Dreier LLP post-confirmation plan administrator.[36][37][38]
  • In February 2015, the firm represented Tibanne Ltd, the parent company of Mt. Gox, bitcoin exchange when the company filed for bankruptcy protection seeking shelter from U.S. lawsuits (Case No. 15-10255-mkv).[39]
  • In February 2018, the firm won a bankruptcy case in the U.S. Supreme Court in Merit Management v. FTI Consulting, in which the Supreme Court limited the application of Rule 546(e) of the bankruptcy code.[40][41][42]
