Overview

Our Insurance Litigation and Torts practice group represents insurers, businesses, property owners, professionals, and other clients in matters involving insurance claims, civil liability, and risk-related disputes. We assist clients in evaluating claims, developing defense strategies, managing litigation exposure, and pursuing efficient resolutions.

Our work includes:

  • Insurance coverage disputes
  • Claims handling and coverage analysis
  • Personal injury and premises liability claims
  • Property damage disputes
  • Professional liability matters
  • Products liability claims
  • Construction-related tort claims
  • Motor vehicle and transportation claims
  • Negligence and fault-based claims
  • Bad faith and extra-contractual claims
  • Subrogation and recovery actions
  • Settlement negotiations and alternative dispute resolution

When litigation arises, we represent clients before courts, administrative forums, arbitration panels, and mediation proceedings. Our attorneys handle all stages of dispute resolution, including pre-suit evaluation, pleadings, discovery, dispositive motions, expert coordination, trial preparation, appeals, and enforcement of judgments.

We also advise clients before claims become lawsuits, helping them assess liability, preserve evidence, evaluate coverage positions, and identify practical options for resolution. Whether defending a complex tort action, addressing an insurance coverage dispute, or managing a high-exposure claim, our approach is organized, responsive, and focused on protecting the client’s legal and financial interests.
