Insurance & Reinsurance

Crown Office Chambers undertakes all forms of insurance, reinsurance and policy construction work. With its strong links to the insurance market, Crown Office Chambers has long been a highly regarded set in this field. Many of its clients are major insurers, Lloyd’s syndicates and brokers. All forms of contentious and advisory work are undertaken, including both marine and non-marine reinsurance. Major fire claims are a particular feature of chambers’ expertise.

Since much of members' insurance work is related to their other areas of specialisation, members of chambers are in the very strong position of being able to combine their specialist knowledge of the law of insurance with that of the underlying dispute, such as construction, employer's liability or professional negligence.

All Forms of Insurance and Reinsurance

Crown Office Chambers is listed in the Legal 500 Directory as one of the leading sets in the field of insurance and reinsurance. Many of those who practise in this field are identified individually in the directories as highly regarded. The size and resources of Crown Office Chambers enable us to offer our clients a greater choice of specialist advocates and advisers at all levels- even at short notice. Our recognised strength in depth and experience of team working has allowed the development of even higher standards of expertise.

Members of Chambers act for both Claimants and Defendants. We have extensive experience in acting for international clients, and Chambers retains good links with Hong Kong and other common law jurisdictions.

Chambers also runs a regular programme of seminars and lectures on recent developments in insurance law. If you would like details, please contact the clerks for further information.

Fee structures are flexible and subject to negotiation. ADR is extensively undertaken by members, and a fully equipped ADR suite is available for use at Crown Office Chambers. Nearly all members of Chambers accept public access work and are very willing to advise clients direct in appropriate cases.
