Defendant.

COMPLAINT AND APPLICATION FOR CIVILE PROTECTIVE ORDER

Plaintiffs Baker & McKenzie LLP (“Baker” or “Firm”), Maurice Bellan, and Doe Plaintiffs

1 through 5 (collectively “Plaintiffs”), by and through undersigned counsel, hereby file this

Complaint and Application for Civil Protective Order against Defendant Brooke Radford (“Ms.

Radford” or “Defendant”). In support thereof, Plaintiffs state as follows:

Introduction

Defendant Brooke Radford is a former associate attorney at Baker. Baker terminated Ms.

Radford’s employment during June 2025 because she: (1) made multiple unauthorized personal

purchases on her Firm-issued credit card, including clothing at high-end clothing stores, first-class

airplane tickets, and many personal food delivery and Lyft transportation charges; (2) violated
other Firm policies; and (3) refused to cooperate with a Firm investigation into the unauthorized

charges and other violations. Following her termination, Ms. Radford has committed the following

tortious conduct against Plaintiffs:

(1) Repeatedly sent threatening messages to Mr. Bellan, other Baker attorneys, and

other Firm managers and personnel;

(2) Repeatedly defamed Baker by “trolling” Baker on LinkedIn and Reddit with at last

count over 80 false, defamatory, and malicious public statements that Mr. Bellan sexually

assaulted her and other employees and that the Firm covered this up—all of which statements are

entirely false; and

(3) Refused to return Baker’s property, including a laptop computer and related

equipment.

This lawsuit seeks injunctive relief and monetary damages for Ms. Radford’s tortious

conduct.

Parties

1. Plaintiff Baker is a national law firm with various offices, including an office in the

District of Columbia (“DC”).

2. Plaintiff Maurice Bellan is the Managing Partner of Baker’s DC office, who works

in DC.

3. Doe Plaintiffs are current Baker employees to and about whom Ms. Radford has

made threatening and harassing comments, and who fear for their safety.

4. Defendant Brooke Radford is a former associate attorney in Baker’s DC office. Her

last known address is in Bethesda, Maryland. Ms. Radford was hired by Baker as an associate

attorney in September 2022. Her employment at Baker was terminated during June 2025, effective

2
in July 2025.

Jurisdiction and Venue

5. This Court has jurisdiction over this action pursuant to D.C. Code § 13-423(a).

6. Ms. Radford caused tortious injury to Plaintiffs in DC via her acts described in this

Complaint. Ms. Radford engaged in a persistent course of conduct of defaming Mr. Bellan and

Baker, threatening Mr. Bellan and other Baker attorneys and employees, converting Baker’s

property, and otherwise harming Plaintiffs in DC.

7. Venue is appropriate in this Court, pursuant to D.C. Code § 11-921.

During June 2025, Ms. Radford’s Employment With Baker Was Terminated Because She
Made Unauthorized Personal Purchases On Her Firm Credit Card, Which She Refused To
Discuss With Baker.

8. Baker provided Ms. Radford with a Firm-issued credit card to use for appropriate

work-related expenses.

9. Baker has established policies regarding which expenses are considered work-

related and authorized for associate attorneys to charge to Firm credit cards.

10. During the spring of 2025, Baker discovered that Ms. Radford had charged more

than 100 transactions on her Firm-issued credit card that appeared to be unauthorized non-work-

related expenses and/or which required receipts to verify the purchases as authorized business

expenses.

11. Ms. Radford’s many suspect credit card charges included, among other dubious

charges:

$712.85 purchase of clothing at Lululemon in Beverly Hills, California;

$233.62 of purchases at clothing retailer H&M;

Amazon purchases of women’s tights, AirPods, and a phone case, among other

3
 Amazon purchases;

Numerous food deliveries to Ms. Radford’s home;

Numerous Lyft transportation charges that did not appear to be work-related; and

Unauthorized first-class airplane tickets.

12. During April and May 2025, Baker investigated Ms. Radford’s charges on her

Firm-issued credit card.

13. Baker also investigated other violations of Firm policy committed by Ms. Radford.

14. As part of the investigation, multiple Baker managers interviewed Ms. Radford.

15. Baker managers also requested that Ms. Radford provide receipts for suspect

charges to demonstrate the business purposes of the charges.

16. Ms. Radford was uncooperative and combative during the interviews.

17. Ms. Radford refused to provide information that Baker requested regarding the

credit card charges.

18. During late May and early June 2025, Baker followed up with Ms. Radford multiple

times to discuss the investigation.

19. Ms. Radford refused to participate in requested meetings to discuss the credit card

charges.

20. Ms. Baker also refused to provide her availability for a meeting to discuss the issues

being investigated.

21. On June 4, 2025, Baker notified Ms. Radford in writing that the Firm was

terminating her employment for the foregoing reasons, effective July 7, 2025.

22. The termination letter informed Ms. Radford that she was prohibited from

performing any further Firm-related work.

4
During June and July 2025, Following Her Termination, Ms. Radford Texted Accusatory,
Threatening, And Odd Messages To Baker Associate Attorneys.

23. After Ms. Radford received her termination letter, she began making accusatory,

threatening, and otherwise odd comments in a group text chat of Baker tax associates.

24. During June and July 2025, both after Baker had informed Ms. Radford that it was

terminating her employment and after her employment officially ended, Ms. Radford texted

messages to a Baker associates’ group text chat that included, among other messages:

Accusing her former colleagues of “oppression”;

Accusing a former colleague of “mov[ing] [her] things during a meeting”;

Singling out the same former colleague and asking whether she “would like to

apologize for anything you’ve done to me”;

Saying that she “wanted to air some things out”;

Oddly posting multiple news articles about heat waves and other weather news; and

Posting rap song “5 AM in Philly,” in which rapper Meek Mill calls out and

threatens revenge against people who betrayed him. The song features many lyrics

about gun violence and revenge, including:

o “How you think I'm supposed to live when only thing I see is war?”

o “I change my drawers, then put on my Glock when I wake up”

o “And the only thing you own is a .40 and a little nine”

Posting rap album “AI Youngboy 2,” which includes multiple songs about revenge,

retaliation, and gun violence, as well as racist and profane lyrics. Below are merely

a few examples:

5
 o “Make No Sense” – “I flash and beat a nigga ass with this fifty ball”;

“Northside, bullets flying, back to back, bitch, when we ride”; “Die today,

bitch, they say four pussy niggas died 'fore I died, slime.”

o “Self Control” – “I'ma finish him off with a four nickel”; “Play, I put you

to sleep before you could see (bitch)”; “You niggas know we quick to let it

blow for any reason”; Kick down your door, post up on your front porch,

and we ain’t leavin’.”

25. Ms. Radford did not reference in her messages any allegations about sexual assault

or harassment committed by anyone at Baker.

26. The following are screenshots of those messages in the group chat:1

The names of Baker attorneys and other employees, other than Mr. Bellan and Human Resources
Manager Marisha Lewis, are redacted from the messages and communications included in this
Complaint to protect their privacy and safety. See Doe v. Cabrera, 307 F.R.D. 1, 5 (D.D.C. 2014)
(recognizing courts’ authority to allow anonymity or redaction when necessary to safeguard
victims of harassment or retaliation). Disclosure of these individuals’ identities is unnecessary to
the resolution of the legal issues in this matter and could expose them to further harm or unwanted
attention, as a result of Ms. Radford’s harmful and tortious conduct.

and expressed concern for her well-being, in light of her strange messages. Ms. Radford responded

with even more strange messages.

31. On July 11, 2025, in response to Ms. Lewis’s emails attaching Ms. Radford’s final

33. A few minutes later, Ms. Radford responded again to Ms. Lewis’s email, “Any

other question?” Ex. 3.

me $50,000 to have your grandchild then fired me because I chose not to. I suggest

you call it quits before I let everyone know everything.”

Sharing a violent rap song “R.I.P” by Youngboy, which is laced with violent and

racist lyrics such as:

Mothafuck them niggas and what they say about me (said 'bout me)
You do too much talkin', you a fed, prolly (fed, prolly)
Drive-by in my pocket, got them dead bodies (dead bodies)
My Goyard look like morgues, that’s them dead bodies (dead bodies)

Attorney at Baker McKenzie,” despite no longer working at the Firm.

39. On or about August 12, 2025, Ms. Radford posted on LinkedIn a comment on a

story about a woman who was asked to sign an NDA over a harassment complaint. In her

comment, Ms. Radford specifically named Maurice Bellan and Marisha Lewis, accusing them of

“attempt[ing] to do the same thing to me.” Ms. Radford “tagged” Mr. Bellan and Ms. Lewis in

her comment.

40. Following her comment on August 12, 2025, Ms. Radford messaged Ms. Lewis on

LinkedIn: “My turn”:

29
 41. Neither Mr. Bellan nor Ms. Lewis (or anyone else at Baker) ever attempted to have

Ms. Radford sign an NDA.

42. On August 13, 2025, Ms. Radford sent a LinkedIn message to another Baker

business professional: “How can you be a DEI employee and act the way you do? As ignorant as

you are, you would struggle to find your way out of a brown paper bag.”

 43. Also on August 13, 2025, Ms. Radford sent a LinkedIn message to a Baker partner,

stating “You are black, in case you didn’t know”:

31
 44. Also on August 13, 2025, Ms. Radford sent a LinkedIn message to another Baker

attorney, stating “I’m sorry [name redacted], can you speak up? Nobody can hear you. Reach out

to [name redacted], she’s going to need assistance in a criminal matter”:

45. Also on August 13, 2025, Ms. Radford sent a text message to a Baker business

professional stating, “Remember when you came to my office after leaving me out of a meeting,

telling me you don’t make mistakes, and good luck on my ‘second time taking the bar’? Well I

do.” A screenshot of that message is below:

 46. The Baker professional whom Ms. Radford messaged understood the message to

be a personal threat against her.

47. On August 13 and 14, 2025, Ms. Radford sent threatening text messages to a Baker

associate attorney. The associate was visibly shaken when she reported the messages to Mr.

Bellan. Screenshots of the messages are below:

33
 During August 2025, Ms. Radford Rebuffed Communications From Baker’s Outside
Counsel Asking Her To Cease Her Inappropriate Behavior.

48. On August 15, 2025, Baker McKenzie’s outside counsel sent Ms. Radford a letter,

which requested that she refrain from sending harassing and threatening messages to Firm

the part of Baker in her communications to Baker’s outside counsel.

Shiesty G post "R.I.P." and reason he in the dirt (on slime, blrrrd, blrrrd)

54. On September 14, 2025, Ms. Radford texted the group: “Are you guys ready?” Ms.

was terminated. Baker McKenzie and Colin H. Murray continue to celebrate his leadership while

women are silently suffering at the hands of someone they put in power.” A screenshot of the

complete post is below:

38
 60. Ms. Radford also posted comments on LinkedIn posts of Baker attorneys and posts

LinkedIn posts of both Baker attorneys and posts from other LinkedIn accounts referencing Baker,

sexually assaulted me (and other women) during my employment at Baker McKenzie. When I

denied his offers (some were monetary) I was terminated. Baker McKenzie and Colin H. Murray

Good morning. We’ve been marinating in lists of the best movies of the 21st century.
What purpose does a list serve, anyway?

What did you rank as your top movies of the 21st century? Did you include “La La Land,”
which landed at No. 16 on our list of readers’ picks, despite not appearing at all on the list by
actors and directors? I struggled to determine how I would rank a movie as one of “the best.”
Was it one that left me astonished when I saw it? One that stayed with me long after
2
watching? Or should I choose films that somehow felt important in the history of cinema?
And what does “important” mean anyway? In 2000, I loved “High Fidelity” and “Best in
Show” — but of course I hadn’t seen “Moonlight” or “The Royal Tenenbaums” or “Tár” yet.
What did it mean if my list diverged wildly from The Times’s lists? From those of my friends?
I found myself inanely worrying that my picks weren’t serious enough, that they didn’t
adequately convey my tastes or aesthetic.

What is the purpose of a list ranking “the best” of something, anyway? Is it to establish a
canon, a definitive record, etched in stone? Is it to inspire questions and conversations and
arguments about what makes something good? The very fact that we are stopping to consider
the movies we love and debating their relative merits, interrogating what our picks say about
us and the culture, is glorious. If we bemoan how the majesty of moviegoing has been
diminished and replaced by slack-jawed streaming of algorithm-designed “content,” then a
project that lifts us out of the endless scroll and helps us remember why we love movies in
the first place is a welcome tonic.

I love the way a big list forces me to question and define my tastes, to consider what I like and
don’t and why, to sharpen my critical takes against those of others. But the best part of
engaging with the films of the 21st century is how the list prompted a cascade of memories of
the past 25 years. I remember the exact theater in which I saw “Y Tu Mamá También” in
2002, the friends I was with, where we ate afterward. That restaurant is definitely not there
anymore. I remember seeing “Melancholia” in 2011, talking about it over drinks in a weird
bar in Midtown. What was my drink order in those days?

The objective quality of a film is fun to debate, but it’s a lovely sort of ecstasy to think back
over one’s quarter-century of movie-watching experiences, to use those movies to populate a
memory palace. The film is just the catalyst for a million other reminiscences.

Making a list of the movies you loved over the past 25 years is a way of organizing those
years, a kind of post-factum diary. If you were to riff on each of your top 10 movies, what
long-forgotten details from your history might be dislodged? You might remember how “The
Hurt Locker” floored you in 2009, but you might also remember the rainy day on which you
saw it, your raincoat — what happened to that raincoat? — the car you drove to the theater,
the job you had then or the person you were dating. We’re forever cramming our brains with
more information. Take these 10 movies and use them to sift through some of the
accumulated sediment, to make order out of the chaos.

If I can rouse myself from reverie, I’ll commit myself this weekend to some of the 11 movies
on the main list that I haven’t seen and want to. (How is it possible that I’ve never seen
3
“Spirited Away”?) Or maybe not — “F1” and “Sorry, Baby” are in theaters, and it might be
more satisfying to get a jump on 2050’s list.

Re: Baker & McKenzie

Dear Ms. Radford:

My firm is outside counsel to your former employer, Baker & McKenzie LLP (the Firm ).

Since the Firm terminated your employment on June 4, 2025, the termination taking effect on July 7,
2025, you have sent several emails, text messages, and LinkedIn messages to various current Firm employees
that have raised serious concerns. Some of these messages contain statements by you that are threatening
(both veiled and explicit), and others are just confusing as they have no bearing on your former position at
the Firm. You have also made defamatory comments on LinkedIn and in text messages about Firm employees.

While it is unclear what your motivations are for sending such messages, we ask that you refrain from
contacting any person at Baker & McKenzie going forward. Should you continue to reach out to people at the
Firm, or continue to make defamatory comments, we will take all appropriate legal action to protect Firm
employees. We truly hope that such action will not be necessary.

device, key fobs, etc., but you have not done so. I can arrange to have prepaid mailing materials sent to you
so that you can return that equipment if you do not already have those mailing materials just let me know if
you d like me to do that. If you do not return that equipment, then the Firm may take legal action to retrieve
it. Here too we hope such action is unnecessary.

If you have any questions about any of this, please feel free to contact me rather than anyone at the
Firm.

Very truly yours,

Nigel L. Wilkinson

Ms. Radford,

The purpose of reaching out to you was to open a dialog and obtain from you the alleged factual basis for your
claims. The Firm does not know what you allege happened, when, where or with whom. The Firm has none of this
information, and you seem to not want to provide it. This does not make sense, if your goal is to bring legitimate
concerns to the Firm and get them addressed. Also, if you reported this to someone at the Firm who did not act, Firm
leadership wants to know those details. The Firm is not aware of anyone in firm leadership was told about these
claims before Tuesday. You make these allegations, yet you refuse to assist the Firm in addressing them.

Moreover, I’ve urged you to stop sending threatening and harassing text messages and to stop making false and
defamatory posts, yet you have offered no facts to show that your posts are anything other than false and
defamatory. Finally, you say that you “will continue business as usual,” with a winking emoji. This is not a winking or

joking matter. You have made extremely serious allegations but refuse to even discuss them or otherwise back them
up. The Firm takes this all very seriously, and reserves all of its available legal rights and remedies.

I look forward to hearing soon from whatever attorney you retain.

Thank you,

Eric

This is exactly where the confusion is. I do not wish to have an open dialogue when you are telling
me my claims and false and defamatory. I will continue business as usual just as the firm tried to

Ms. Radford,

Understood. Please have your attorney reach out to me at their earliest convenience.

In the meantime, I urge you to stop sending people, including former colleagues, threatening messages, and,
further, to stop making false and defamatory posts.

Please provide my contact information to your attorney as soon as possible, and I look forward to hearing from
them.

Thank you,

I have messaged almost all of leadership. They have ignored it but I have proof. But I first reported
to Marisha Lewis and I was fired.

The Firm is willing to discuss your claims, but at present nobody seems to know what you are referring to. Who
in the firm have you reported it to?

Ms. Radford,

You’ve previously corresponded with my colleague Nigel Wilkinson. As a reminder, Jackson Lewis is outside
counsel to your former employer, Baker & McKenzie LLP (the “Firm”).

We have recently been made aware of your social media posts alleging claims against the Firm, and,
particularly, your claim that you have tagged and “reached out privately” to the Firm, which outreach we are
not aware of.

We are reaching out with the hopes of opening a dialog with you. You can either speak with someone from the
Firm or with Jackson Lewis. Please let us know and we will set up a time.

Thank you,
