Quinn Emanuel partners Christopher D. Porter, Silpa Maruri and Mark McNeill have been named ‘Litigators of the Week’ by The American Lawyer for procuring a victory on behalf of its client, the owners of a crude oil storage terminal. During an eight-day arbitration in New York earlier this year, the team, led by Porter, persuaded the arbitration panel to deny a request by the counterparty to terminate its oil storage lease with the organization. QE’s client was also awarded damages for delinquent lease payments, following the tenants' refusal to pay rent for certain tanks they were leasing pursuant to the parties’ agreement.
Congratulations to this stellar QE team!
