Seiden has been dubbed as the Wall Street Bounty Hunter for his prosecution of China Sun Group High Tech, Sino Clean Energy[1] and Shengtai Pharmaceutical Inc.[2]
Career[edit]
From 1988 until 1999, Seiden worked as a Senior Prosecutor at the Manhattan District Attorney's Office in New York City.[3] He served as the initial prosecutor in the People v. Edmund Ko case in Manhattan involving the murder of a Columbia University law student by her ex-boyfriend, who was convicted using an "ear witness" and the results of mitochondrial DNA typing.[4]
He has investigated the Barry Sherman Murder case on behalf of his son Johnathan.[5] Seiden has represented billionaire Kresimir Penavic and thirteen others in a high-profile case where he was defrauded in a luxury wine club instigated by Omar Khan.[6] In 2008, he helped exonerate the wrongfully-convicted Martin H. Tankleff[7] as part of the investigation team; he brought a pandemic supply fraudster to justice.[8]
He had also prosecuted Mark Glass, a landlord in Brooklyn who arranged for two complaining tenants to be killed; he was convicted of arson and attempted murder and served seven years jail.[9] Seiden went after Link Motion, formerly known as NQ Mobile, whose co-founder allegedly moved assets away from the control of investors.[2] In 2019, a US federal judge appointed Seiden as receiver; he seized Link Motion's Hong Kong bank accounts, and his selected CEO won an arbitration action in China, giving him control over a crucial Link Motion firm.[10]
