Financial Services and Insurance

Insurance Litigation

We provide legal, commercial and strategic advice on insurance and reinsurance coverage disputes and policy wordings. We act for policy holders and captive insurers. Our focus is on providing results driven solutions that minimise the risks and realistically assess the potential rewards.

We enjoy an independent position in the market which means that we rarely have the kinds of conflict issues which beset many of the UK’s larger insurance practices.

Much of our insurance disputes work has an international element, and we handle international arbitrations in London, English proceedings for foreign clients, and co-ordinate foreign proceedings for UK clients. We are frequently referred work by foreign law firms, particularly from North America and the EU.
