We represent corporate and individual policyholders in all facets of insurance coverage law. In this increasingly complex world, legal counseling is often instrumental in gaining a full understanding of underlying exposures and the insurance available to cover those exposures.
By choice, we do not represent insurance carriers, so we are able to represent our clients who have disputes with their insurers vigorously, without the conflict-of-interest concerns that can hinder other firms.
Our lawyers analyze coverages in place and counsel clients on enhancements that may be prudent in response to anticipated risks. After a claim arises, our first order of business is to resolve any coverage dispute and secure prompt insurance recoveries. Often, resolution can be achieved without the need for litigation. When litigation becomes necessary, our trial lawyers consistently achieve successful outcomes for our clients.
We have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of corporate, municipal and individual policyholders and have handled a wide array of insurance coverage disputes.
