Representative Matters

Represented the creator, writer, and executive producer of the worldwide hit television series The Walking Dead, and leading talent agency CAA, in a suit against the AMC television network. The plaintiffs alleged that AMC produced the show and licensed it for broadcast to itself for license fees well below market rates, resulting in diminished profits for the show and its participants. After the trial team of Dale, Chad Fitzgerald, and Aaron Liskin defeated two of AMC’s motions for summary judgment and several key motions in limine, the case settled for $200 million plus future revenue sharing related to streaming exhibition of The Walking Dead and Fear the Walking Dead.
Obtained a $179 million arbitration award, the second largest in history, representing the executive producer of the hit television series Bones in a lawsuit against 20th Century Fox Television, the Fox network and affiliated companies. The plaintiff alleged that 20th Century Fox Television cheated him out of his share of profits from the show, and that network executives threatened to cancel the series if he did not accept a lower licensing fee from Fox.
Represented the creators (Mike Tollin and Brian Robbins) and writers (Miles Millar and Al Gough) of the hit television series Smallville in a profit participation and vertical integration case against Warner Bros. Television. The creators alleged that Warner Bros. Television licensed Smallville to its sister networks The WB and The CW for “sweetheart” deals with unreasonably low license fees, in violation of Warner Bros. Television’s contractual duties to the plaintiffs. KWIKH defeated two motions for summary judgment brought by the defendants and obtained a favorable settlement for the plaintiffs.
Filed suit on behalf of American Idol creator Simon Fuller in his case against Fox Broadcasting Company and Fremantlemedia North America. In this suit, Mr. Fuller alleges that as part of the settlement of the 2004 UK litigation regarding the similarities between American Idol and X Factor, Mr. Fuller had been promised an executive producer credit and fee for the US version of the X Factor television show. This matter is still pending in Los Angeles Superior Court.
Defended Kathryn Bigelow and writer Mark Boal against the claims of Master Sgt. Jeffrey Sarver, an Iraq war veteran who alleged his rights of publicity were violated and he was defamed by the movie The Hurt Locker. Mr. Boal had been embedded with Sarver’s unit and wrote about him and other bomb disposal experts for an article, “The Man in the Bomb Suit.” The film was later adapted from this article, and Sarver claimed that it was based on him, presenting him in false light, resulting in ridicule from fellow service members. In October 2011, Judge Jacqueline Nguyen ruled that The Hurt Locker was a movie connected to an issue of public interest and that Sarver had not demonstrated a likelihood of prevailing. The suit was dismissed, with Sarver ordered to pay the attorney fees of all involved. This ruling ensured that the First Amendment rights of filmmakers are protected, reducing the effect that lawsuits such as this one would have on the creativity of the arts.
Filed a complaint and actively litigating an action on behalf of Jaycee Dugard against the federal government for failing to monitor convicted sex offender Phillip Garrido, who kidnapped and held Ms. Dugard captive for 18 years. Ms. Dugard’s recent New York Times bestselling book detailing the horrors of her kidnapping and 18 years in captivity frames the backdrop of this litigation. The complaint states that authorities were negligent and aware that Garrido was still dangerous, yet failed to revoke his parole and return him to prison. This filing follows the record $20 million settlement in 2010 negotiated by Mr. Kinsella on behalf of Ms. Dugard against the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation for alleged failure to adequately supervise Garrido during the 10 years he was under its parole supervision.
Represents Kate Hudson and Kurt Russell in a variety of matters.
Represented numerous individuals and companies in litigation against KPMG and other national accounting firms in connection with “tax shelter” abuses that have been the subject of Congressional investigations. Mr. Kinsella has recovered tens of millions of dollars for his clients in these matters.
