We have a long-established and successful relationship with the
insurance industry, and a strong insurance practice. It is natural
therefore that we also advise insurer clients in relation to
insurance law. Our clients include both major composites and niche
insurers, the combination of which offer insurance cover to the
vast majority of industry sectors.
Our knowledge of insurance law includes the regulation of the
business of insurance and claims handling, to case law and the
content of insurance policies.
A matter of policy.
Our insurer clients give very careful consideration to refusing
indemnity under a policy they have issued. Not only can a refusal
fall foul of the law and regulation, such decisions may attract bad
publicity. We advise on the interpretation of insurance policies,
and are very sensitive to issues of reputation in the event of
denying cover.
