Tulane University Law School recognized the role alumni played in securing a historic settlement for its client, the State of Maryland, in connection with the M/V DALI’s allision with the Francis Scott Key Bridge. The settlement is the largest single maritime property damage settlement in U.S. history.
Liskow maritime attorneys helping lead the effort on behalf of the State of Maryland were David Reisman and Elizabeth Strunk, and four Tulane Law alumni: R. Keith Jarrett (L’85), Raymond T. Waid (L’07), Elizabeth “Libby” McIntosh (L’15), and Jessie Shifalo (L’22).
“Tulane’s maritime law program has long prepared students not just to understand maritime law academically, but to step into the most sophisticated, high-stakes maritime matters in the world,” said Waid, who also serves as an adjunct professor of maritime law at Tulane Law.
