While some might need to live in a bigger city to practice law on the world stage, that isn’t the case for Wilmington-based attorneys Patrick Mincey and Stephen Bell.
Partners with law firm Cranfill Sumner, they represent clients in high-profile, high-stakes finance and whistleblower cases on both the national and international levels.
One only needs to look at the team’s current caseload to prove the point.
Mincey and Bell are the lead attorneys for whistleblower William Wilkerson in two investigations: One is Wilkerson’s complaint alleging securities violations against former President Donald Trump’s company Trump Media & Technology Group, and the second is Wilkerson’s disclosure to the U.S. attorney’s office that two loans totaling $8 million sent to Trump Media that appear to have Russian ties. Additionally, Mincey and Bell represent Mark Coffey, a whistleblower whose 2019 SEC complaint exposed allegations of an international $2 billion money laundering scheme.
The legal team has also added numerous clients dealing with cryptocurrency-related cases to its roster.
“It’s truly about taking on cases that have the largest impact and the longest-lasting legacy,” Bell said. “We try to take cases that allow us to do good for ourselves and others, and a lot of the cases we’re dealing with now impact the country as a whole.”
