"...Ben-Haim's lawsuits almost equal his [company] exits. 2012:
Biotech billionaire Prof. Shlomo Ben-Haim is facing his third lawsuit this year and fourth in his career over the life sciences companies he founded. He has been sued twice by entrepreneurs of companies he founded, who accused him of stealing their assets. He was once sued by his former partner and friend, Lewis Pell for alleged unfair distribution of assets between them. The question arises whether the string of lawsuits is because of Ben-Haim's deep pockets, or is he a serial dispossessor?
...Ben-Haim has founded many companies, and over time, found it harder to support them. In 2008, he turned to the US and Israeli capital markets for the first time, raising $124 million in bonds for Medinvest Group LLC, mostly from foreign investors, for nine companies which he had founded since 2000. He invested $40 million of his own money. The companies included Core Dynamics Ltd. (the subject of the current lawsuit), in which Medinvest invested $17.9 million in 2009..."
Multiple court cases against the professor, even several from the state of Israel. So..Colourful family history.
But to add a wee bit of light to the family colours, in addition to multiple other successes an estimated "10,000 Patients Benefiting From Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) Therapy for Heart Failure" which then can't be knocked, even if the Ben-Haim family name has lost some of its sheen.
