(If you want to see the source documents click on the screen shots) Since its founding in 1975, Gusrae Kaplan Nusbaum PLLC has become one of the preeminent boutique securities law firms in the United States. Located on Wall Street in the heart of New York’s financial district, the firm’s 21 attorneys and knowledgeable support staff provide sophisticated and cutting edge transactional, regulatory, and litigation services to clients all over the world. Managing Partner Martin H. Kaplan notes that the firm continues to capitalize on its growth and the prestige it has achieved over the last 37 years. But a look at its history tells a different story – Gusrae Kaplan Nusbaum PLLC was built on a web of deception and fraud. Bert Lee Gusrae, founder of Gusrae Kaplan, committed fraud when he said he had been Chief Attorney of the NYC Securities and Exchange Commission New York office of Enforcement from 1962 -1967. He just passed the bar in 1962. Bert Lee Gusrae has been licensed to practice law in NY since 1962.
He could not have gone from passing the bar to becoming Chief of the NYC SEC Office of Enforcement. Yet his resume clearly states his first job was “Chief Attorney,
Branch of Enforcement, New York Regional Office, Securities and Exchange Commission, 1962-1967.”
Bert created a fraudulent resume to attract clients. That is how this prestigious law firm got its start. His clients would think, “Wow this guy knows all the ins and outs at the SEC. He was top guy. If there is a payoff to be made or influence exerted he is the guy to do it.” Gusrae was just another assistant attorney at the SEC and not even in the Enforcement Division but in the Division of Trading and Markets. Look at this 1966 document:
Will the real Chief Enforcement Attorney, New York Regional Office, Security and Exchange Commission Please Stand Up!
This document is from 1966, It revealed that the real Chief Enforcement Attorney, New York Regional Office, Security and Exchange Commission was Joseph C. Daley. It proves Gusrae forged his resume to the point of criminal fraudulent misrepresentation. Daley, a Yale graduate, became a partner in Mudge Rose Guthrie & Alexander, Nixon’s law firm. Gusrae was a graduate of Brandeis University, BA 1957 Law School: Boston University, LLB, 1961 two third rate schools. Gusrae tried to elevate himself to Daley’s stature. And it worked!! On the basis of a statement intended to defraud, as Gusrae’s
clients shelled out dough believing this BS, Gusrae’s one man law firm became a Wall Street giant. What first made me suspicious that something was very wrong was when the firm was vague about who the former Chief of Enforcement SAC was and when he was Chief. I checked every biographical piece of every lawyer in the firm and found nothing. Then I came across Gusrae’s resume. It was him. So I ran his name through the New York Times index. There was no mention of his appointment or any mention of his activities as chief of most important SEC office. NYT INDEX “Gusrae” search results. When I searched 1962 to 1967 only this came up.
GUSRAE KAPLAN IS COMMITTING FRAUD BY PERPETUATING THIS LIE This is the first thing you see on their website.
Marty Kaplan knows Gusrae lied about his background because he was in on the deception. Once I get the official records his law firm will be discredited and lose clients and revenue. The Press Relations section did not have records that went that far back. I filed an FOIA request with the SEC for Gusrae’s SEC employment records. The only time Bert was Chief was when he played cowboys and Indians in Queens. Bert was cheap Russian Jewish hustler whose parents shortened their name to hide their race. Bert got involved with the Russian mob. He was a sleaze bag and liar and the firm he started carries on his tradition otherwise they would not have Steve Rombom working for them. After Gusrae left the SEC he started his own law firm. If you hired him you were buying influence, at least that is what his clients mistakenly believed. Bert told perspective clients that he was an Allied Member, New York Stock Exchange, 1968-1969. Member, Panel of Arbitrators, New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Member, Panel of Arbitrators, American Arbitration Association. All this is a goddamned lie. His clients would think, “Wow this guy has all the bases covered. Big Board. SEC Enforcement. This is the shyster for me.”
I filed a complaint with the NYS Attorney General’s Office regarding the perpetuation of this fraud. None of this would have come to light if not for Gusrae Kaplan's employee, STEVE ROMBOM, a discredited PI who is trying to destroy the Jewish Defense Organization.
