Our work spans industries and risk profiles, from institutional investors and REITs to energy and infrastructure clients involving pipelines, chemical manufacturing, and electric generation and distribution, with billions in coverage at issue.

Our Boston coverage lawyers advise public and private companies and their executives on high-stakes D&O and other management liability disputes, delivering fast, strategic results in “bet the company” matters. We regularly counsel private equity firms, portfolio companies, financial services companies, banks, and other key financial sector players in Boston and nationwide on insurance issues arising from M&A transactions, including indemnity and insurance obligations, continuity of coverage after asset sales, acquisitions, or other changes in control, and due diligence reviews. We also help clients navigate complex regulatory investigations and claims.
