The members provide expert advocacy and advice on coverage and claims across a wide range of insurance policies, such as business interruption, contractors’ risk, employers’ liability, environmental risk, financial and credit risk, fire, flood, life, motor, permanent health, professional indemnity, public liability and war and terrorist risk.

Members are particularly experienced in fraud, personal injury, European directives and travel law, property damage, professional negligence – including construction and engineering, product liability, and clinical negligence.
