Claims & Dispute Resolution

To achieve the best possible outcome, expert legal advice is required in claims disputes and in interpreting insurance terms and conditions. Procedural skills, comprehensive knowledge of insurance regulation and hands-on experience in the insurance sector are key in all insurance disputes, such as outsourcing disputes, disputes with suppliers or insurance intermediaries, employee disputes, administrative disputes and regressions.

As our client, you will benefit from our extensive knowledge in all kinds of insurance disputes as our experts work seamlessly together across teams. Typical disputes concern regulation interpretation, insurance claims and run-off portfolios. They may also arise out of cooperation agreements as well as agreements regarding marketing, agents, brokers or outsourcing. We will advise you in litigation and arbitration proceedings as well as in board proceedings before the Insurance Complaints Board and the Consumer Disputes Board, among others.

Our services include:

  • Expert opinions on the interpretation of the terms and conditions of insurance policies (non-life, life, pension and reinsurance) both before and after the occurrence of an insured event
  • Reviewing, settling and commenting on claims concerning insurances (non-life, life, pension and reinsurance) as well as drafting written pleadings in board proceedings
