A Discussion with David Strachman
Providence Public Library is pleased to welcome
Providence attorney David J. Strachman to the Rochambeau Branch Library
(708 Hope Street) on Monday, January 26 from 7:00 to 8:00 PM for a
discussion about how victims of international terrorism have
successfully fought terrorists such as the PLO and HAMAS, as well as
state sponsors of terror such as Iran and Syria in U.S. courts.
Strachman is a Providence, Rhode Island, attorney noted for his
representation of terror victims in civil suits against terror entities.
He is a partner at McIntyre, Tate and Lynch in Providence and brought
the first civil suit under the Anti Terrorism Act of 1990. He has
litigated numerous cases against the PLO, Palestinian Authority, HAMAS,
Iran, Syria and the PKK in Rhode Island, New York and Washington. He is
an adjunct professor of law at Southern New England School of Law and
the author of the recently published Civil Terrorism Law (Lawyers and
Judges Publishing, 2008), the first book on civil terrorism litigation.
