Australian Financial Review Features Burwick Law's Federal Class Action Against Believe Founder Ben Pasternak

Burwick Law's federal class action involving the Believe platform and its founder Ben Pasternak has been covered by the Australian Financial Review.

The case, Lee v. Pasternak, alleges that Pasternak ran the same token launch playbook across three different token names — $PASTERNAK, $LAUNCHCOIN, and $BELIEVE — collecting creator fees on every trade, reneging on at least twelve public buyback promises, and executing a token migration that allegedly diluted holders by approximately one-third. The complaint asserts claims under New York consumer protection law, California false advertising statutes, and common law theories of negligent misrepresentation and unjust enrichment.

The Australian Financial Review article covers Pasternak's background as a Sydney tech entrepreneur and traces his path from co-founding plant-based food company Simulate to the allegations now pending in federal court. The case is pending in the Southern District of New York.
