TechFlow News, May 16: According to Bloomberg Law, on May 14, a group of victims who lost their life savings in the FTX exchange collapse filed a lawsuit against Silicon Valley law firm Fenwick & West LLP, seeking $525 million in damages. The plaintiffs allege that the law firm, having served as FTX’s primary outside legal counsel for years, knowingly assisted in establishing shell companies and implementing communications controls to conceal evidence—even while aware that FTX had breached its fiduciary duties and misappropriated billions of dollars in customer assets. FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was arrested following the exchange’s collapse in 2022 and was subsequently convicted on seven counts of fraud and money laundering, receiving a 25-year prison sentence.
