Insurance Litigation

Insurance Litigation

We have successfully represented insurance clients across the spectrum of the industry. We help our clients with their insurance disputes and work with major insurers in protecting their insureds and our clients’ interests when sued. We handle insurance coverage litigation involving manuscript and form policies in numerous areas, including D&O, P&C, CGL, excess and umbrella, and professional malpractice. We also provide coverage opinions for insurers and insureds.

Our insurance litigation attorneys have extensive experience working with clients on complex policy matters and complicated claims. We examine policies and advise insurance carriers whether an insured has coverage in a particular case. We also investigate and defend claims that insurers have inadequately paid a claim, engaged in wrongful delay of payment, or denied payment of claims.

We assist clients in analyzing life, health and disability claim determinations, counsel them on appropriate file handling procedures, and, if necessary, defend litigation brought by claimants against insurers in these insurance cases.
