newbie, for all practical purposes sussman is done with wamu share holders. that dream is dead. The only reason sussman got involved is that they were paid by the courts. I doubt they are working on contingency with wamu escrows etc.. I never heard that and it is unlikely.
Another big win for the firm this year was the recovery of hundreds of millions in value for shareholders of Washington Mutual Inc. when the bank won court approval for a $7 billion reorganization plan resolving some legal claims related to its collapse. After defeating two reorganization plans that would have wiped out equity completely, Susman Godfrey attorneys negotiated with the debtor and certain key creditors a resolution that provided shareholders with 95 percent of the post bankruptcy WaMu plus other assets in a package worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
