Insurance law attorneys counsel both policyholders and insurers in a variety of insurance coverage disputes.
Insurance Defense
Our attorneys review policies to determine coverage and to tender claims to carriers for coverage or litigation defense. When applicable, associates develop litigation strategies for clients that integrate the presence of insurance coverage into the process in order to aggressively protect their policy rights, both through negotiation and litigation in trial and appellate courts.
In appropriate cases, attorneys also explore methods of maximizing available insurance resources through alternative dispute resolution. Our work also includes the negotiation for the payment of defense costs and settlements, and the litigation of bad faith and coverage disputes.
Insurance Coverage
Our services extend also to assessing and analyzing client insurance policies and aggressively advocating in connection with coverage disputes. This includes cases that arise under all forms of insurance policies, including comprehensive general liability, professional liability, errors and omissions, business interruption, property and casualty insurance policies, corporate directors and officer’s liability policies, and employer’s liability policies.Our work in this area includes advising insurers, individuals, companies, and municipal entities on insurance coverage issues relating to environmental liabilities, products liability, intellectual property disputes (including trade secret and copyright matters), employment litigation, and first-party coverage claims for property and casualty losses and business interruption losses.
Commercial Claims & Disputes
Tort Claims & Disputes
We have successfully accessed insurance coverages for our policyholder clients in a wide range of commercial, tort, and environmental claims and disputes.
