Howarth & Smith

Criminal Defense
At the University of Oxford, Don Howarth, Suzelle M. Smith, and guest speaker Jacqueline Perry QC lectured on exposure of corporations under criminal law for acts of negligence where the state attempts to use the doctrine of "collective knowledge" to prove
White Collar Crimes
Manslaughter
The state’s highest court yesterday rejected Attorney General Martha Coakley’s effort to prosecute a nursing home company for manslaughter because numerous employees allegedly failed to safeguard a 74-year-old resident who died when her wheelchair overturned, sending her tumbling down the home’s front steps.

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
Life Care said the SJC “has completely vindicated Life Care Centers of America on the theory of collective knowledge and has sent an important statement, not just for Life Care, but on a national level for criminal corporate law. As always, the protection and care of our residents remains our highest priority — in Acton and across the country.
Business Disputes
Suzelle M. Smith is a partner and co-founder of the Los Angeles law firm Howarth & Smith. Ms. Smith has extensive experience in complex litigation, professional malpractice, products liability, entertainment, first amendment, and business law and has tried many cases to verdict, representing both plaintiffs and defendants. Some of her cases include the Estate of Doris Duke, antitrust litigation against the NFL, an Attorney General action against the tobacco industry, breach of contract claims for the Vatican Library (custodian of Vatican art), claims brought against a major polluter by the citizens of a residential area, copyright claims against major film studios, trademark infringement claims, breach of contract actions against major Fortune 100 companies on behalf of former executives, right to privacy and right to publicity claims on behalf of major entertainment celebrities, and terrorist cases, including actions brought by the families of the victims of the 911 events against Bin Laden, Al-Qaeda, and state sponsors of terrorism, among others.
Intellectual Property
Unfair Competition
Kiini and Victoria’s Secret have recently settled a lawsuit that Kiini filed in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California back in October 2015. New York-based Kiini, which has gained a “cult-like following and is known for the original, distinct, copyright-protected swimwear designs,” initiated the action against the lingerie giant for copyright infringement, trade dress infringement, and unfair competition.
Antitrust
While studying at the University of Oxford, Chris was elected President of the Oxford Union, the university’s historic debating and speaking society. He also won The Times 2TG National Mooting Competition, the largest mooting competition of its kind in the UK. In his junior year, Chris spent six months interning at the United Nations Development Programme in Amman, Jordan. He also spent his vacations running debating workshops in schools abroad for Oxford University Press as part of a wider project to promote critically informed debate in education; in this capacity he travelled to the UAE, Malaysia, Thailand, China, Egypt and Jordan. Chris has lectured/tutored in EU law, antitrust law and media/data protection law and has undertaken legal work experience at multiple barristers’ chambers and at law firms such as Skadden (job offer), Linklaters, Mayer Brown, PwC Office of General Counsel, and Allen & Overy, and was awarded the Howarth & Smith Oxford-Cambridge Fellowship.

Personal Injury
The Academy is a group of truly elite trial lawyers representing both sides of the Bar: prosecutors and defense lawyers in criminal cases, and plaintiffs' and defense counsel in civil litigation (including business and personal injury cases). While the majority of the Fellows come from the U.S., the Academy includes lawyers from more than 30 countries. Fellowship is by invitation only, and trial lawyers are invited to become Fellows only after an extremely careful vetting process.

Trusts and Estates

Trusts
FACTS: David Smith is the sole shareholder of BTM Funding Inc. The Muse plaintiffs invested in loans made by BTM Funding Inc. to finance the construction of churches around the country. In 2009, the Muse plaintiffs discovered significant problems with the church loan program. The Muse plaintiffs also discovered that real property purchased by BTM Funding Inc. had been quitclaimed from BTM Funding Inc. to David Smith, from David Smith to his wife Carmen Copple Smith, and from Carmen Copple Smith to the Carmen Copple Silva Revocable Living Trust.

Foreclosure
That lawsuit went to arbitration, and an arbitrator ruled against Hyan in 2008, awarding TriPacific $419,510 in attorneys’ fees, expenses and costs. Hyan, who claims he faced foreclosure of his home in Park City, Utah, and was hospitalized for a cardiac incident related to stress, sued the firm for more than $30.5 million, including $24.6 million in lost income.
