Insurance Coverage Counseling

are modified, costs vary, corporate fortunes ebb and flow — and no matter how sophisticated the analysis, unexpected events inevitably occur. Our goal is to help clients address known issues and risks, while positioning them to respond to unforeseen developments more effectively.

We work closely with businesses and individuals to first gain a thorough understanding of their unique environments, goals and needs. We then develop strategies that enable clients to align insurance coverage options with their risk profile and risk management objectives. As circumstances change, we communicate regularly with our clients to identify emerging opportunities, as well as respond to external changes that alter their risk profile.

These services and initiatives include:

  • Obtaining and renewing insurance coverage, including negotiating favorable coverage terms
  • Evaluating types of coverage, policies and plans that are new to the marketplace
  • Coordinating insurance and other critical company documents, such as bylaws, loan covenants, and indemnification provisions of contracts and licenses
  • Negotiating indemnification of officers and directors
  • Negotiating payment of defense expenses
  • Counseling on corporate governance, including insurance-related aspects of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act 
  • Exploring alternative risk transfer mechanisms, including captives and risk retention groups

We provide experienced counsel in virtually every area of insurance coverage, including:

  • Commercial crime and fidelity bonds
  • Commercial general liability
  • Cyberliability and E-commerce liability
  • Directors' and officers' liability (D&O)
