Our specialist insurance team offers a comprehensive, cross-practice service for businesses operating across the insurance sector.
Comprising expertise from our corporate, commercial, technology, IP, employment, dispute resolution, finance, restructuring and insolvency teams, we advise insurance businesses on a range of legal and commercial needs.
We act for insurers, intermediaries, service providers and customers of the industry, giving us a unique 360 degree view. Many of our lawyers have been seconded to insurance companies and have a deep understanding of the business issues affecting the sector, as well as the pressures faced by in-house teams.
Whilst we act for businesses big and small, our particular expertise lies in the mid-market – advising insurance entrepreneurs, start-ups and SMEs as well as large corporates on mid-market deals. We have a wealth of knowledge of the issues faced by the insurance market and offer quality legal advice that adds commercial value to our clients’ businesses.
