McGuire of UnitedHealth Group, $500 million affecting Dennis Kozlowski of Tyco, and in 2019 clawbacks of compensation for the former CEO of Wells Fargo John Stumpf as well as a colleague.Clawback lawsuits in US courts, especially from innocent individuals and entities who profited from financial crimes of others, have increased in the years since 2000.In its article "The Amazing Madoff Clawback; How two lawyers, Irving Picard and David Sheehan, have recovered 75 cents on the dollar of the stolen money—many times the usual rate in such cases," "The Wall Street Journal" discussed how Irving Picard has headed a team of lawyers that have clawed back an unprecedented 75% of the monies illegally taken by Bernard Madoff, by filing suits to claw back monies from those who profited from the scheme, whether they knew of the scheme or not.
