Insurance Defence

About

Provided by Colin Biggers & Paisley

With more than 100 lawyers, our Insurance group is one of Australia’s largest. We have decades of experience defending complex, high stakes matters and managing high volume claims, supported by expertise in claims management, underwriting, broking and claims resolution.

“Complex claims made simple” shapes how we work. As insurance specialists, we provide clear, practical advice and cut through complexity with a responsive, transparent approach. Using deep industry insight, we design strategies that minimise risk and exposure and deliver confidence and clarity.

Our experience gives us a strong understanding of industry challenges. We support insurers, reinsurers, Lloyd’s syndicates, underwriters, brokers and agents, claims managers, TPAs, self insureds and insureds. While we aim for commercial outcomes, clients trust us with significant or sensitive litigation. We also advise on policy drafting, interpretation, product development, regulatory issues and recoveries.

Many clients are ICA General Insurance Code of Practice signatories, and we train our people on key requirements, including family violence, vulnerability, financial hardship and complaints. Our family violence policy is public, and we guide individuals to translation services where needed.

As an Australian practice with global reach and a founding member of Global Access Lawyers, we provide seamless access to leading insurance specialists worldwide.
