Some people call us “Insurance Recovery” lawyers or “coverage counsel.” I prefer Policyholder Advocate. I’ve recovered over nine-figures in insurance dollars for companies, non-profits, and HNW individuals facing major losses and litigation.

When might a person or company need to call an insurance coverage counselor or a recovery lawyer?

  • To review a claim denial. Never take “no” for an answer from an insurer without seeking legal advice first.
  • To review a first-party loss or a third-party claim for potential coverage.

Typical First-Party Losses:

Property Damage/Business Interruption

Data Breaches

– Theft or Crime Losses

Typical Third-Party Claims:

– Legal Actions (e.g., Lawsuits, Arbitrations, Indictments)

– Demand Letters

Investigatory Demands (e.g., Subpoenas, CIDs, Wells Notices)

  • To assist with the insurance notice and claims process. Insurance Recovery law involves maximizing policyholder recoveries by applying best practices in claims management.
  • To get more out of your insurance dollars by auditing annual policy purchases or renewals. A good audit will identify coverage gaps and propose policy improvements.
  • To improve risk management by harmonizing commercial contracts with insurance policies. Identify issues and improve overall risk transfer by reviewing and negotiating contractual indemnity and insurance provisions.
