Pioneers in Anti-Terrorism Law “We do things that have never been done before,” says Thomas Fay,
founder of Fay Kaplan Law, P.A. The firm has become known for
its ability to hold foreign governments accountable for damages
in terrorist attacks. Mr. Fay ventured into the anti-terrorism
law sector in 1983, when he began working with those affected
by the terrorist attacks on U.S. Marine in Beirut, Lebanon. He
went on to pioneer the use of the Federal Foreign Sovereign
Immunities Act. The firm now represents more than 900 FSIA
claims. It deals with cases worth billions of dollars on a regular
basis. In addition to their niche in anti-terrorism law, the firm
specializes in personal injury and medical malpractice law.
Fay Kaplan Law, P.A. is proud to introduce its newest associate,
Jamie Elizabeth Knight, who joined the firm on January 2, 2013.
Mr. Fay is also pleased to report that his nephew, Joseph W. Fay,
is now of counsel to the firm in the area of criminal law.
