Insurance Coverage
Avoidance of costly coverage litigation starts with effective strategic claims handling policies and procedures and prompt, expert analysis of coverage questions when they arise. Severson’s attorneys work closely with clients to develop and implement claims procedures designed to prevent first and third party disputes. When coverage questions occur, Severson attorneys are skilled in handling the critical analysis necessary to provide thorough, comprehensive policy interpretation and application advice. Severson attorneys’ coverage analysis expertise extends from personal lines to complex specialty lines issues, and from commercial liability to professional errors and omissions (E&O) policies.
When judicial interpretation of coverage issues is necessary, Severson attorneys are well-versed in the pursuit of declaratory relief actions in state and federal courts. From environmental and toxic tort matters to personal and property damage issues; from construction defect claims to complex business disputes, Severson attorneys aggressively pursue equitable and legal contribution actions in primary and excess insurer disputes and defend coverage actions. |
