Litigation

Bruce G. Paulsen is a member of the firm's Litigation group and has practiced law since 1985.

Mr. Paulsen specializes in handling commercial and maritime disputes. He has extensive experience in the commercial litigation arena. He is perhaps best known for obtaining one of the largest sanctions awards in New York history and for winning the billion dollar "X-Clause" litigation in the Adelphia bankruptcy. Other commercial disputes handled by Mr. Paulsen have included contract disputes, insurance, reinsurance, investment funds, securities, commodities, derivatives, banking, real estate, bankruptcy, trusts and estates, regulatory disputes, and others.

Mr. Paulsen's primary maritime focus is on finance-related disputes. He has represented bondholders, bond issuers as well as secured lenders in matters arising from some of the most significant financing defaults in the shipping business. He has also defended securities claims brought against publicly financed shipping ventures. Further, he has acted for shipowners, charterers, lenders, borrowers, marine insurers, shipyards and others in litigations and arbitrations involving more traditional maritime disputes.

Mr. Paulsen received a B.A. in American History from Columbia University in 1980, and a J.D., Cum Laude, from Tulane University in 1985. He is a member of the Committee on Commercial Litigation of the American Bar Association Litigation Section, and is the Chairman of the Security Sub-committee of the Maritime Law Association. Mr. Paulsen has lectured and written frequently and is author of New Horizons: An Analysis of Public Markets Financing of Shipping Ventures and the Impending Wave of Shipping Securities Litigation, 81 Tul.L.Rev. 1541 (2007); co-editor of Out of the Fog: The Sinking of Andrea Doria (Cornell Maritime Press, Inc. 2003), winner of the 2004 United States Maritime Literature Award.
