Nutritional Products International (NPI), a well-known company that sells health and wellness brands worldwide, has recently attacked companies that Brian Gould runs. In this case, many claims charge Gould with different wrongdoings, such as theft of trade secrets, conspiracy, breach of fiduciary duty, and unfair gain.
NPI says that Gould stole confidential documents, trade secrets, possible customers, and corporate equipment while working for them. He also gave his clients to his rivals, such as Nutra Sales International, LLC, Nutritional Sales and Consulting, Inc., Trulife Distribution Lawsuit, Inc., and BPG Consulting, Inc. In addition to monetary penalties, the case requires an injunction to stop Gould from competing with NPI in business.
Nutritional Products International (NPI): What Is It?
Mitch Gould, the suspect’s father, runs Nutritional Goods International. This company helps businesses all over the United States sell more new and old goods. NPI has been in business for more than 30 years, and in that time, they have helped hundreds of companies start and sell products through online channels and big stores like Amazon, CVS, Target, Walgreens, and Walmart using their unique distribution methods.
Claims made about Brian Gould.
The lawsuit says that during Brian Gould’s 12 years as president of NPI, he broke many of his responsibilities to the company. He is accused of stealing a computer with trade secrets, getting clients from NPI, getting leads for new clients while pretending to be an NPI representative at a trade fair, and giving out private information and trade secrets. Surprisingly, these supposed wrongdoings happened while Gould worked for NPI and with NPI money.
Brian Gould’s wife and in-laws have been sued.
NPI is also suing Brian Gould’s new wife, Rodica Lesan Gould, and her parents, Valentina Lesan and Anatolie Lesan. In these cases, the people who are suing accuse the people who are being sued of conspiracy and tortious meddling.
NPI’s Choice to Keep Its Business Safe
Mitch Gould, who made NPI, promised to protect the company from these threats. Gould’s family has always sold and made things for sale. Gould is a global marketing expert who has worked with famous players and celebrities like Hulk Hogan, Ronnie Coleman, Roberto Clemente Jr., Chuck Liddell, and Wayne Gretzky.
The things he did to make his business successful were things he came up with over several years. We will do everything in the law to stop Brian, the Lesans, and Trulife Distribution Lawsuit from stealing our company.
Conclusion
Nutritional Products International is suing Brian Gould and related companies for trade secret theft, breach of fiduciary duty, and unjust enrichment. The goal of NPI is to stop Brian Gould from starting any health and fitness businesses that would compete with NPI and to protect its unique ways of doing things. Everyone has much to lose or gain from how this case turns out.
