Kreindler's 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund team, led by Kreindler Managing Partner Noah H. Kushlefsky, continues to help victims made sick from toxic exposure receive medical care and recover financial compensation.
“I was there. I went to work every day. I saw the devastation of Lower Manhattan. Representing people affected by the terror attacks has been the fabric of my entire life.”

Kreindler's Victims of Terrorismlitigation team, led by Kreindler Partner Megan Wolfe Benett, is focused on seeking justice and compensation for victims of terrorist attacks in the United States and throughout the world. The firm was instrumental in launching the ongoing 2017 lawsuit against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as a result of the Kingdom's support provided to the 9/11 hijackers. Twenty-four years later, the firm continues to fight on behalf of nearly 3,000 victims and their families. The September 11th litigation is the result of years of relentlessly pursuing justice while faced with significant political and legal hurdles at every turn.
Advocacy by Kreindler and other 9/11 plaintiffs' law firms led to congressional passage in 2016 of JASTA (the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act) which made it possible for U.S. victims to sue a foreign nation over terrorist acts.
Kreindler's unique global experience litigating and securing damages for victims of terrorist attacks can be traced back to the firm's work following the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. In that case, Kreindler's lawyers obtained the largest recovery for a single disaster in the history of aviation – nearly $3 billion – against Libya and Pan Am.
