Practice Groups
Insurance Coverage
Rivkin Radler’s Insurance Coverage Practice Group is one of the largest of its kind in the nation.
We represent many of the nation’s largest insurers. We also represent foreign insurers and policyholder-owned insurers. Many of these relationships go back more than 30 years.
Rivkin Radler tackles the insurance industry’s most challenging issues with innovative strategies and outstanding client service. We were among the first firms to handle complex coverage issues such as pollution, asbestos, advertising injury, molestation, life sciences, medical technologies, climate change, terrorism and the financial crisis, and we remain at the forefront of insurance law.
Our attorneys handle all aspects of insurance coverage law:
- Litigation and dispute resolution: We represent insurers in every form of dispute resolution, including negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation, throughout the country. We have litigated many of the leading insurance coverage cases.
- Coverage advice: From answering coverage questions to developing prudent claims-handling strategies, our attorneys successfully resolve insurance claims before policyholders resort to litigation.
- Policy wording: We draft language for policies including those concerning new or industry-specific issues to ensure our clients anticipate, evaluate and protect against ever-changing risks.
Our insurance coverage and litigation lawyers are respected by their peers as prominent members of the insurance coverage bar. Our attorneys contribute to treatises and trade and industry publications. Our attorneys speak before clients, industry associations and groups such as the American Bar Association, the New York State Bar Association, the New Jersey Institute for Continuing Legal Education and the Defense Research Institute. We take leadership roles in national, state and local bar associations.
