10. As described in the allegations that follow, the Defendants failed to perform acts
required by the attorney-client relationship to be performed in Florida, breached duties to

damage in Florida.
General Alleuations
11, On February 4, 2010, FIGUEROA, created a series of YouTube videos exposing
assigmnent mortgage fraud, foreclosure fraud, robo-signing, notary fraud and affidavit fraud that
involve loans to securitized trusts that were already closed.
12. On February 5, 2010, SZYMONIAK contacted FIGUEROA in reference to his
YouTube videos on assignment of mortgage fraud saying it was "excellent work" and asked to
meet with him.
13. On February 9, 2010, FIGUEROA met with SZYMONIAK at a "Foreclosure
Happy Hole. They discussed a proposed class action against lawyer David Stern for his part in
foreclosure fraud and FIGUEROA's YouTube videos, FIGUEROA stressed to her that a Qui
Tam action with him as the relator was the way to go because there had been damages to the
U. S . Government.
3
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 5 of 41
14. During the meeting, SZYMONIAK stated that she was FIGUEROA's attorney
and expressed concern over whether FIGUEROA had discussed his thoughts about a Qui Tarn
action with others.
15. At the meeting, FIGUEROA explained to SZYMONIAK that he desired to pursue
a Qui Tarn action since the U.S. Government was being defrauded, in that government sponsored
entities (e.g. Freddie Mac, HUD, FHA, VA, Ginnie Mae and Fannie Mae) buys, backs,
guarantees and insures mortgage purchases in the secondary market, and in that the government
was involved in the mortgage industry through HAMP, TARP, AIG Bailout, and the FDIC
programs.. The U.S. Government was harmed by this fraud.
16. Through FIGUEROA's own initiative, his research, his professional real estate
background, and personal experience with a foreclosure of his investment home (which involved
Freddie Mac), FIGUEROA had gained information about the fabricated documents, in-house
signers posing as bank officers, wrongfully notarized documents, postdated documents,
backdated documents, missing documents, forgeries and false affidavits. Under the reasonable
belief that information shared with SZYMONIAK was confidential, at the meeting and thereafter
he shared this information with her and explained his theory of pursing a Qui Tam action.
17. At the meeting, FIGUEROA initiated all discussion with SZYMONIAK about a
Qui Tam action. SZYMONIAK stated that she was considering a class action lawsuit on behalf
of homeowners.
18. After the meeting, SZYMONIAK reiterated that she was FIGUEROA's lawyer
through e-mail, stating: "I am very excited about being your lawyer and I have not said that very
often in the last 10 years".
4
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 6 of 41
19. Between February 10 and February 16, 2010, FIGUEROA and SZYMONIAK
exchanged numerous e-mails. In these e-mails, FIGUEROA provided SZYMONIAK with
evidence of fraud, including numerous fraudulent mortgage assignments, county records...
20. On February 17, 2010 at 6:01 a.m., SZYMONIAK, on behalf of all Defendants,
sent a retainer agreement to FIGUEROA indicating: "Can't wait for you to meet my co-
counsel."
21. On February 17, 2010 at 6:14 a.m., SZYMONIAK e-mailed FIGUEROA, staling:
"Here is the problem with the qui tam", discussing the need for the U.S. Government to be a
victim of the fraud for a Qui Tam action, and then stating: "But if you want to try this too, let me
know and we will file together..." (emphasis added).
22. On February 17, 2010 at 6:16 a.m., SZYMONIAK sent FIGUEROA a Statement
of Client's Rights.
23. On February 17, 2010 at 8:31 a.m., FIGUEROA sent back the signed retainer
agreement and a statement of client's rights.
24. On February 17, 2010 at 8:40 a.m., FIGUEROA replied to SZYMONIAK's 6:14
a.m. e-mail, stating: "If it makes it a much stronger case for us to file together I am with you...I
AM AT YOUR SERVICE for what ever you need me, you never have to ask twice."
25. From that point on, SZYMONIAK solicited information and assistance from
FIGUEROA, copied him on correspondence related to Qui Tam issues, and represented to him
that she and her co-counsel were trying to get the U.S. Government to pick up the claim with
FIGUEROA.
26. At no time did any of the Defendants:
5
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 7 of 41
(a) inform FIGUEROA that the Defendants were not going pursue a Qui Tam
action with FIGUEROA as the relator;
(b) inform FIGUEROA that the Defendants have a conflict of interest because
they were pursuing a Qui Tam action with SZYMONIAK as the relator, based on the allegations
of fraud on the U.S. Goverment for fraudulent mortgage assignments and other foreclosure
documents;
(c) obtain a waiver of the conflict of interest described in sub-paragraph (b)
above from FIGUEROA;
(d) limit their representation of FIGUEROA to not include a Qui Tam action
with him as the relator; and
(e) obtain a waiver of the attorney-client privilege from FIGUEROA in order
to use information confidentially obtained from him to pursue a Qui Tam action with
SZYMONIAK as the relator.
27. Under the pretense of attorney-client privilege, SZYMONIAK continued to solicit
information from FIGUEROA for the Defendants' use in a Qui Tam action.
28. For example, on February 18, 2010, SZYMONIAK requested that FIGUEROA
find information about mortgage backed securities purchased by the U.S. Government, stating in
separate e-mails: "PLEASE DO NOT POST THIS REQUEST. But if you have some
information or can direct me, I would be most appreciative" and "Here we go again. For the
possible Qui Tam, we need to show harm TO THE GOVERNMENT. (irony here is extreme of
course)."
29. Thinking he was assisting the Defendants with building a Qui Tam action with
him as the relator, FIGUEROA found the requested information and forwarded it to
6
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 8 of 41
SZYMONIAK. One of the e-mails that FIGUEROA forwarded to SZYMONIAK showed links
to securities that the government had purchased and links to lenders who sold to the government
on the secondary market. Another of the e-mails that FIGUEROA forwarded to SZYMONIAK
stated: "YOU ARE ABOUT TO FALL see attachment...US to spend about 9 TRILLION!!"
30. On February 19, 2010, SZYMONIAK e-mailed FIGUEROA to explain that she
and the other Defendants had been busy filing a class action lawsuit in another matter in the
United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, and forwarded him the
complaint listing SZYMONIAK, the SZYMONIAK FIRM and the JANET FIRM as counsel.
This e-mail reinforced FIGUEROA's faith in the Defendants.
31. Again, on February 22, 2010, SZYMONIAK solicited assistance from
FIGUEROA, her client, stating: "When you get a chance.. .would you work in making a list of
all court decisions where the case was thrown out because the bank did not have standing
because it had not yet acquired the note & mortgage via Assignment? (This is a rather LARGE
project — but would be very useful to everyone and we could use it to prove actual knowledge of
the Missing Assignment problem by the banks).
32. Thinking he was assisting the Defendants with building a Qui Tam action with
him as the relator, FIGUEROA spent thousands of hours over the next several years.researching
in excess of four hundred (400) eases of foreclosure fraud.
33. On February 22, 2010, SZYMONIAK and FIGUEROA met in Boca Raton to
exchange documents related to her appearance in his foreclosure case in Broward County, and
the two again discussed pursuing a Qui Tam action.
7
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 9 of 41
34. On February 23, 2010, SZYMONIAK e-mailed KLEINMAN of the JANET
FIRM regarding FIGUEROA. That same day, FIGUEROA sent an e-mail to KLEINMAN and
received back an automatic receipt.
35. On February 23, 2610, FIGUEROA and KLEINMAN of the JANET FIRM have
a nineteen (19) minute phone call, in which they discuss a possible class action lawsuit and other
matters arising out of FIGUEROA' s experience.
36.. On March 4, 2010, Defendant, LYNN SZYMONIAK, ESQUIRE, forwarded to
FIGUEROA a message originally sent to the FBI, reinforcing his belief that Defendants were
building a Qui Tam action with him as the relator. In response, FIGUEROA sent SZYMONIAK
numerous e-mails with a total of twenty-six (26) additional fraudulent assignments that he had
found, showing that the U.S. Government was a victim.
37. On March 7, 2010, SZYMONIAK sent FIGUEROA a draft of a class action
complaint in which FIGUEROA would be named as a plaintiff. The Defendants never informed
FIGUEROA that they would not be pursuing this claim or a Qui Tam action on his behalf, or that
they would be pursuing a Qui Tam action with SZYMONIAK as the relator.
38. On April 4, 2010, FIGUEROA, e-mailed a full list of LPS Signors to
SZYMONIAK, stating: "For us only."
39. In response, SZYMONIAK sent FIGUEROA an e-mail stating: "Thanks for this.
I noticed that these authorizations do not say that the signors can pretend to be officers of the
bank. I wonder how they decide who gets to be a vice president and who has Co be assistant
secretary?" She also indicated: "What I am working on (see why your timing is so perfect)",
attaching a partial draft of a Qui Tarn lawsuit. This reinforced FIGUEROA's belief that the
8
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 10 of 41
Defendants were building a Qui Tam action with him as the relator and causing him to continue
sending information to SZYMONIAK.
40. On April 28, 2010, FIGUEROA e-mailed SZYMONIAK, attaching a 2007 memo
from Deutsche Bank National Trust to their servicers that put the servicers on notice of the need
to ensure correct documentation and how to properly foreclose.
41. On April 30, 2010, SZYMONIAK again solicited assistance from FIGUEROA.
Thinking he was assisting Defendants with building a Qui Tam action with him as the relator,
FIGUEROA e-mailed SZYMONIAK an attachment regarding Michelle Church DocX.
SZYMONIAK responded that she was not aware of Michelle Church.
42. On May 2, 2010, SZYMONIAK forwarded an e-mail to FIGUEROA regarding
the Michelle Church DocX information, stating that it "Following your wonderful lead... this
could be very, very big." The forwarded e-mail dealt with SZYMONIAK inquiring about the
identity of individuals in South Carolina.
41 Over the next several months, SZYMONIAK solicited additional information and
research from FIGUEROA, which he provided to her. During this time, Defendants never:
(a) informed FIGUEROA that the Defendants were not going to pursue a Qui
Tam action with FIGUEROA as the relator;
(b) informed FIGUEROA that the Defendants have a conflict of interest
because they were pursuing a Qui Tam action with SZYMONIAK as the relator, based on the
allegations of fraud on the U.S. Government for fraudulent mortgage assignments and other
foreclosure documents;
(c) obtained a waiver of the conflict of interest described in sub-paragraph (b)
above from FIGUEROA;
9
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 11 of 41
(d) limited their representation of FIGUEROA to not include a Qui Tam
action with him as the relator; or
(e) obtained a waiver of the attorney-client privilege from FIGUEROA in
order to use information confidentially obtained from him to pursue a Qui Tam action with
SZYMONIAK as the relator.
44. On June 28, 2010, FIGUEROA and SZYMONIAK exchanged e-mails about Qui
Tam actions in California and Nevada. During this exchange:
(a) SZYMONIAK states: "Have you been approached by anyone about filing
a qui tam against Stern & IndyMac? I cannot get anyone interested — but I think they should be
interested."
(b) FIGUEROA replies: "Only by you :) ... you told me to keep it between
us. You would be the only person who would take me serious and not think I am nuts!"
(c) SZYMONIAK replies: "Just so you know that I have NOT filed a qui tam
and have not found anyone willing to do this — so if you are aPproached, you should consider
this. Despite all the hype, no one is beating down our doors to help us."
45. On July 8, 2010, FIGUEROA e-mailed SZYMONIAK: "There is an attorney in
Ft. Lauderdale who is organizing a Class. Action on Stern. He might ask me to be the Class Rep
for it. My question is does it conflict on anything we plan to do in the future? My loyalty is with
you and want to ask to make sure."
46. On July 8, 2010, SZYMONIAK replied: "I cannot get my group to act — please
take any opportunity you can to get justice. When we both get justice, we will go to lunch every
damn day the first year."
10
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 12 of 41
47. On July 30, 2010, SZYMONIAK forwards to FIGUEROA a letter from her to the
FBI that is copied to Richard A. FIarpootlian ("HARPOOTLIAN") of Richard A. Harpootlian,
P.A. (the "HARPOOTLIAN FIRM"), who was also represented to be Defendants' co-counsel,
which reinforced FIGUEROA' s belief that Defendants were pitching his Qui Tam action to the
government.
48. Defendants did not inform FIGUEROA that they had filed a Qui Tam action with
SZYMONIAK as the relator or that they were going to file others with SZYMONIAK was the
relator based upon information obtained from FIGUEROA while representing him,
49. Upon information and belief, a Qui Tarn action was filed in the United States
District Court for the District of South Carolina on or about June 6, 7 or 8, 2010. In this Qui
Tam action, the attorneys of record were HARPOOTLIAN, the HARPOOTLIAN FIRM and the
JANET FIRM, and the relator was SZYMONIAK.
50. Upon information and belief, another Qui Tam action was filed in a United States
District Court in North Carolina in or around November 2010. In this Qui Tam action, the
attorneys of record included HARPOOTLIAN, the HARPOOTLIAN FIRM and the JANET
FIRM, and the relator was SZYMONIAK.
51. Throughout the next several months, FIGUEROA continued to send information
regarding foreclosure fraud to SZYMONIAK, thinking that Defendants were still considering a
Qui Tam action with him as the relator. Upon information and belief, Defendants used the
information provided by FIGUEROA to assist them in pursuing the Qui Tam actions with
SZYMONIAK as the relator.
52. Finally, in March 2012, FIGUEROA learned that the U.S. Government had
reached a $25,000,000,000.00 settlement with certain mortgage lenders and servicers, of which
11
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 13 of 41
$95,000,000.00 was related to a Qui Tarn action brought in South Carolina regarding the
nationwide practice of failing to obtain the required mortgage assignments and providing false
assignments, defrauding the U.S. Government of taxpayer money. Upon information and belief,
the basis of this Qui Tam action was the information relayed by FIGUEROA to the Defendants
while he was under the impression that they were representing him.
53. Upon information and belief, the Defendants received the sum of $18,000,000.00
for their part in the South Carolina Qui Tarn action. Of these funds, 9,000,000.00 will go to
SZYMONIAK and unknown amounts will go to HARPOOTLIAN, the HARPOOTLIAN FIRM,
KLEINMAN and the JANET FIRM. These sums would not have been received by the
Defendants but for their use of information wrongfully obtained from FIGUEROA. In addition,
FIGUEROA would have received proceeds from the settlement had Defendants not wrongfully
concealed from him that SZYMONIAK was the relator in the Qui Tam action and would they
have instead included him as the relator.
54. Upon information and belief, the Defendants will receive additional proceeds as a
result of the information they had wrongfully obtained from FIGUEROA to use in the Qui Tarn
action, as the above-described settlement was only a partial settlement of the U.S. Government's
claims against mortgage lenders and servicers.
55. These funds have been and will continue to be received by the Defendants,
despite the fact that they never withdrew from representing FIGUEROA, without ever disclosing
the conflict of interest they had in representing him, without ever disclosing to him that they
were pursuing a Qui Tam action with SZYMONIAK as the relator, without ever disclosing to
him that they would be using information he provided in reliance upon the attorney-client
12
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 14 of 41
privilege, and without ever obtaining a waiver from him of the attorney-client privilege prior to
using confidential information to obtain a recovery for SZYMONIAK as the relator.
COUNT I LEGAL MALPRACTICE AS TO DEFENDANTS
LYNN & THE SZYMONIAK FIRM P.A.
56. FIGUEROA realleges and reavers paragraphs numbered 1 through 55 above as if
fully repled herein.
57. FIGUEROA entered into an attorney-client relationship with SZYMONIAK and
the SZYMONIAK FIRM to serve as counsel and advise him with respect to claims he might
bring against mortgage lenders, servicers and foreclosure law firms.
58. At all times material hereto, SZYMONIAK and the SZYMONIAK FIRM owed
FIGUEROA a reasonable duty of care in representing him, advising him, making representations
upon which FIGUEROA could rely, and in holding information relayed to them as confidential
under the attorney-client privilege.
59. SZYMONIAK and the SZYMONIAK FIRM breached these duties by, inter cilia:

(b) failing to limit the scope of their representation of FIGUEROA in writing,
so as to inform him that they would not be pursuing a Qui Tam action with him as the relator;
(c) using information for their own benefit that was provided to them by
FIGUEROA under the confidence of the attorney-client relationship;
(d) soliciting FIGUEROA for information to assist in a Qui Tam action for

as to not include a Qui Tarn action;
(e)
failing to obtain informed consent from FIGUEROA to waive the conflict
of interest that existed between them as a result of their pursuit of a Qui Tam action based on the
allegations of fraud on the U.S. Government for fraudulent mortgage assignments and other
foreclosure documents that FIGUEROA had brought to their attention;
failing to obtain informed consent from FIGUEROA to waive aftomey-
client privilege with respect to information he relayed to them, prior to using that information
gained in confidence for SZYMONIAK's own benefit as the relator in a Qui Tam action;
(g) failing to inform FIGUEROA that their own pursuit of a Qui Tam action
with SZYMONIAK as the relator would prevent him from obtaining a recovery as the relator in
any other action based on the allegations of fraud on the U.S. Government for fraudulent
mortgage assignments and other foreclosure documents; and
(h) failing to properly investigate and file a Qui Tam action with FIGUEROA
as the relator.
60. As a result of the negligence of SZYMONIAK and the SZYMONIAK FIRM,
FIGUEROA has been damaged by, inter cilia:
(a) relaying information to Defendants that he had gathered in order to pursue
a Qui Tarn action as relator, which they used to pursue a Qui Tam action with SZYMONIAK as
the relator, thus precluding any possible recovery by FIGUEROA as a relator;
(b) in reliance upon SZYMONIAK's and the SZYMONIAK FIRM's
representation of him, not soliciting other legal representation for the bringing of Qui Tam
claims as the relator, thus precluding any possible recovery by FIGUEROA as a relator;
(c) losing the compensation of being the relator in Qui Tam actions in North
14
Case 0:13-cv-61020-JIC Document 1-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/01/2013 Page 16 of 41
Carolina and South Carolina based on the allegations of fraud on the U.S. Goverment for
fraudulent mortgage assignments and other foreclosure documents; and
(d) losing the right to pursue Qui Tam actions in numerous other jurisdictions
based on the allegations of fraud on the U.S. Government for fraudulent mortgage assignments
and other foreclosure documents.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff, IGNACIO DAMIAN FIGUEROA, demands judgment against
Defendants, LYNN SZYMONIAK, ESQUIRE and THE SZYMONIAK FIRM, P.A., together
with costs, pre-judgment interest, as well as all other damages allowed by law.
COUNT II BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY AS TO DEFENDANTS
LYNN SZYQN1AK & THE SZYMONIAK FIRM P.A.
61. FIGUEROA realleges and reavers paragraphs numbered 1 through 55 above as if
fully repled herein.
62. SZYMONIAK and the SZYMONIAK FIRM entered into an attorney-client
relationship with FIGUEROA, thus establishing fiduciary duties of the utmost loyalty, honesty,
candor and confidence.
63. SZYMONIAK and the SZYMONIAK FIRM breached the fiduciary duties owed
to FIGUEROA by, inter alia:
(a) using the confidence that FIGUEROA had in them in order to solicit
confidential information from him to use for their own benefit;
(b) misleading FIGUEROA and concealing their actions from FIGUERO.A so
that he would not pursue a Qui Tam action as the relator and so that he would not realize that
they were pursuing a Qui Tam action with SZYMONIAK as the relator based on the very issues

FIGUEROA, in that she used the information for her own benefit by serving as the relator in a
Qui Tam action.
