Insurance: Policyholder

Hunton’s insurance coverage practice helps policyholders maximize recoveries through insurance program reviews, claims presentation and negotiation, litigation, alternative dispute resolution, trials, and appeals. This year alone, we have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for clients ranging from global brands to privately held businesses.

Since 2021, Hunton has recovered more than $2 billion for policyholders. Our track record includes complex, high-stakes recoveries in litigation and arbitration, including matters where other policyholder lawyers have faltered. Clients have turned to us to take over major coverage disputes involving sex trafficking and abuse claims, asbestos liability, and other complex exposures. Our ability to step in, recalibrate strategy, and deliver results in sensitive, high-exposure matters reinforces our reputation as the firm policyholders call when the outcome matters most.

We also obtain substantial recoveries without litigation. In the past year, we secured more than $150 million in insurance recoveries for an AmLaw 200 law firm, several colleges and universities, a major airline, an oil refinery, and a national automotive services provider.

Our lawyers also provide regulatory and strategic advice to help clients protect operations, structure effective insurance programs, maximize coverage, particularly for directors and officers, and develop alternative risk-transfer solutions and captive insurers.
