With strict attention to detail and a thorough knowledge of relevant laws, we provide strong protection to carriers and policyholders.
Regardless of the specific type of claim, we work diligently to reduce damages and defeat unwarranted claims in Maryland, the District of Columbia and Virginia. We have extensive experience handling defense, coverage and subrogation issues for clients in state and federal courts. From start to finish, we offer personalized attention and keep you apprised of case developments and potential litigation costs. Our firm provides thorough analysis of insurance policy language and whether specific claims qualify for coverage. Following a detailed review, we issue clear opinion letters outlining the extent of the exposure our carrier clients face. In situations where the claimant bears fault, or more than one potential defendant exists, We will vigorously pursue information that demonstrates that other parties are wholly or partially responsible.
Should the insurer have an obligation to defend against the claim, we work toward a prompt, favorable resolution whether that occurs through settlement negotiation, mediation, arbitration, a declaratory judgment action or, when necessary, litigation. We handle various types of matters, including:
- Tort litigation
- Claim management and apportionment services
- Reinsurance advice and disputes
- Bad faith litigation
- Professional liability litigation
- Insurance appeals
We also assist insurance companies in situations involving third parties.
Although accomplished litigators, we are dedicated to securing the results that serves the overall interests of our clients. This means giving each insurer honest counsel regarding the merits of the claimant’s case and the time and expense required to resolve the case in court. We have a thorough understanding of settlements and verdicts and give our clients the information needed to make sound decisions.
