Insurance

We have decades of experience defending claims ranging from complex, high-stakes, sensitive and high value, claims through to high-volume matters. Our group are insurance professionals, bringing together more than just legal experience, but also claims management, underwriting, broking and claims resolution.

Complex claims made simple. This is our mantra.

As experts in insurance, we get to the point to deliver practical insight and clarity for our clients and take the sting out of claims with our responsive and transparent approach. We draw on industry experience to create strategies that minimise risk and limit exposure. By taking time to listen, engage and understand the unique issues of each claim, we deliver peace of mind.

We have deep insurance industry knowledge and experience that has been built over many decades. We understand the industry’s issues and challenges, and use this to provide practical solutions to insurers and reinsurers, Lloyd’s syndicates, underwriters, brokers and agents, claims managers, third-party administrators (TPAs), self-insureds and insureds. 

While we strive to settle claims commercially in line with our clients’ objectives, we are also the team they rely on in sensitive or significant insurance litigation. With our expertise and industry insights, we also advise on policy drafting, amendments and interpretation, product development, regulatory issues, subrogated recovery actions.

With most of our insurer clients being signatories to the Insurance Council of Australia's General Insurance Code of Practice, we provide training to our people on key aspects of this Code. This training focuses on understanding family violence, assisting people with vulnerabilities, managing financial hardship and dealing with complaints effectively. Our family violence policy is available to view and for individuals requiring translation services, we refer them to the Translating and Interpreting Service.

We are an Australian insurance practice with a global reach, assisting insurers and other global market participants wherever they do business. We are a founding member of Global Access Lawyers, a connected global offering providing insurer clients easy access to recognised insurance law specialists across the globe. 

Our Insurance group is consistently recognised respected guides including Chambers & Partners, Legal 500 and Best Lawyers in Australia.
