What the Team is Known For
Bullivant Houser Bailey is a highly regarded insurance practice sought after by major insurers for its broad base of expertise. The team is noted for its considerable strength in handling insurance coverage claims as well as other disputes arising across the sector.
Strengths
I can't think of anyone better to handle complex coverage issues. They are the premier firm, and I have the deepest trust in their ability to resolve such matters.
Notable practitioners
Trial lawyer Joseph Hampton is frequently sought after by insurers seeking expert representation and advice on matters across the sector.
Matthew Sekits is a trial lawyer with notable experience in handling complex disputes on behalf of insurance carriers as part of a broad-based commercial litigation practice. He is shareholder-in-charge of Bullivant's Seattle office.
Matthew Sekits is diligent, careful and mindful of business considerations. He is also strategic and willing to give direct advice when needed.
His advice has been invaluable.
What stands out to me is Matthew's analysis and his ability to evaluate the matter as well as separate out the issues that are relevant and then to be able to explain it.
Michael Guadagno is an accomplished litigator who focuses his practice on defending insurance and reinsurance clients in coverage disputes and bad faith litigation.
