Directors and Officers Liability

We have combined decades of experience providing counsel to primary and excess insurers in monitoring and resolving claims ranging from complex securities class actions and derivative lawsuits to employment related claims and claims against private companies and not-for profit entities. Our attorneys regularly mediate claims against directors and officers and against insurers, and have appeared in Federal and State Courts and before regulatory agencies, in connection with the resolution of director and officer liability claims.  We have also provided guidance to insurers in drafting and improving the language of directors and officers liability policies, and welcome the opportunity to advise underwriters in connection with due diligence issues. 

We routinely handle all aspects of domestic and international mediation, arbitration and alternative dispute resolution, in every area of our expertise, including insurance coverage matters. We are familiar with and to countless professional mediators and arbitrators, and are regularly involved in matters concerning underlying claims against our clients’ insureds as well as with respect to coverage disputes.
