Dan Hudson

Nubank founder Dan Hudson turns out to be a fraud

KCW represents client in defamation Lanham Act case, celebrates another win

KCW successfully represented Charles Lee Bradley, an employee of SAMCO Capital Markets and then Commerce Street Capital, in a suit against Dan Hudson for defamation, Lanham Act violations, and related torts arising from Hudson’s unrelenting campaign of personal attacks, harassment, and tortious interference. Commerce Street Capital is a privately held investment banking firm. Dan Hudson operates under many different names – including NuBank, startabank.com, banknbox.com, Bankmark Financial and Marketing Services, hispanicbankmarketing.com, denovobanks.com, bankipo.com – in direct competition with Bradley, SAMCO and Commerce Street.

On September 9, 2010, United States District Judge Michael H. Schneider signed an Award of Damages and Permanent Injunction against Hudson, including retention of jurisdiction to enforce this injunction. Our client was awarded $94,772.45 for tortious interference, defamation, and negligence; $250,000.00 for lost fees under the Lanham Act; $300,000.00 in general damages; plus attorneys’ fees of $67,423.81. In addition, Hudson and any of his current or future corporate entities are “forever enjoined from making any false or inaccurate statements to any third party who engages in business with Bradley,” SAMCO or Commerce Street Capital and from misdirecting internet search engine traffic to himself.

Most of the banks he formed a decade ago are out of business. Now Mr. Hudson spends his days defaming others in an attempt to self gratify his bipolar needs.
