Insurance Sector: Insurer (International & Cross-Border) - UK
What the team is known for
Advising on complex insurance litigation forms a core part of DWF’s domestic strength and has contributed to its growth internationally. From the UK, it also offers clients considerable expertise in areas such as product liability, professional negligence, shipping and real estate. The law firm has established a significant network of offices in Europe, and the UK team is able to draw on in-house resources throughout the Asia-Pacific region, the Middle East and Africa to serve clients in need of transnational expertise.
DWF's cross-border insurance practice focuses primarily on disputes relating to the marine and energy sectors. Insurers seeking representation in relation to overseas property damage and business interruption claims are also well served by the London team. Alongside the firm's robust direct insurance practice, multi-jurisdictional reinsurance disputes continue to be an area of strength for the firm.
