Q&A: David Stryker

For more than four years, Huntsman Corp. and its General Counsel David Stryker fought a high-stakes legal battle over an acquisition of a company whose technology ended up not working. David and Huntsman hired the law firm Kirkland & Ellis to sue for fraud and breach of contract. In 2021, Huntsman and Kirkland won, securing an arbitration victory that led to a $665 million settlement. More recently, Huntsman and David secured a $94 million jury verdict in New Orleans in a separate lawsuit. David Stryker’s recent wins came in quick succession, but they were the product of the deep-seated instinct for advocacy that has coursed through Stryker’ veins since the day he became at trial lawyer. The 2022 Houston Corporate Counsel Award for Business Litigation of the Year goes to Huntsman GC David Stryker and the lawyers at Kirkland & Ellis.
