Liability and Insurance Law

Complex liability claims are our speciality. We thoroughly analyse any potential liability and litigation risks and are proactive in clarifying the facts. We develop strategies for conflict resolution in close consultation with our clients. Our approach is consistent, cost-conscious and expedient. Our liability and insurance specialists are there for you when you need them.

We have experience with corporate liability claims and auditor liability, as well as with D&O policies and insurance programmes that cover the risk of business or product liability worldwide. Together with our specialists of the litigation team, we successfully conduct international arbitration proceedings on insurance matters under various rules of arbitration, or we act as arbitrators. If necessary, we revert to our network of professionals to provide recommendations for suitable party-appointed arbitrators. In cases that generate media attention, we establish contact with skilled communications professionals.

We regularly act on behalf of insurance companies or their insured persons if there are incidents involving personal injury. Our specialists have in-depth knowledge about unclear symptoms. In medical malpractice claims, we represent physicians and hospitals. We represent employer companies and their governing bodies in matters concerning workplace accidents of every kind. We accompany persons suspected of an offence and persons providing information through criminal investigations.
