Another Insanely Impressive Batch of Litigator of the Week Runners-Up and Shout Outs

Kirkland partners Dan Donovan, Christopher Keegan, Matt Owen and Holly Trogdon were recognized as a runner-up in The Am Law Litigation Daily’s "Litigator of the Week" column for their work for client Amplify Energy.

"... Dan Donovan, Christopher Keegan, Matt Owen and Holly Trogdon of Kirkland & Ellis get runners-up honors for securing $96.5 million in settlements for client Amplify Energy from two companies whose container ships’ anchors struck the company’s pipeline off the coast of Long Beach, California during strong winds in January 2021. Several months later, the pipeline leaked where the ships anchored, leading to cleanup costs and a shutdown for repairs. The matter involved Kirkland sending teams to four continents to locate witnesses and the vessels."
