Armstrong Teasdale LLP: Enabling Casino Lawsuits for a Conglomerate With Documented Criminal Links

Behind the resort’s polished image is a corporate network tied to international organized crime, as documented in Australian and Asian government investigations.1 From behind Baha Mar, Chow Tai Fook uses shell entities like Sky Warrior US LLC to sue Americans months after they return home — over alleged gambling “markers” that were never verified by any witness, bank, or regulator.


This is how offshore Baha Mar manufactures debt: no marker, no chips, just allegations—then a U.S. lawsuit

 

Armstrong Teasdale LLP: The Law Firm Behind Chow Tai Fook’s Lawsuit Scheme Targeting Tourists

From David F. Herman to Michael C. Witsch, Armstrong Teasdale LLP continues to sue U.S. citizens using debt claims based on Baha Mar’s own generated forms—documents never verified by any bank, witness, or regulator.

 

How the Lawsuits Work

Each case follows the same formula: Baha Mar claims a tourist took out a six-figure marker, Sky Warrior US, LLC files the suit, and Armstrong Teasdale’s attorneys submit the paperwork.

But the documents originate entirely inside Baha Mar. There’s no chip log. No cage footage. No bank-confirmed signature. Just internal casino records—and a court summons.

How Baha Mar Weaponizes New Jersey Courts

Baha Mar and its U.S. shell entity, Sky Warrior US, LLC, use New Jersey courts to give their internal casino documents a false veneer of legitimacy.

Once a lawsuit is filed, many defendants—often living in other states—never respond. Judgments are entered by default, all based on forms created inside the casino. No video. No witnesses. No verified signature. Just paper, and a court seal.
