Insurance Law
The Firm provides ongoing legal assistance to Italian and international insurance companies, intermediaries, and insured entities with the management of complex insurance-related disputes, in both judicial and out-of-court proceedings. Our work focuses in particular on transport insurance (cargo damage, hull and machinery, carrier’s liability), civil and professional liability, motor third-party liability (R.C.A.), and industrial risk coverage.
The Firm also advises companies and corporate groups on insurance due diligence, policy portfolio review, and the selection of insurance brokers – including through competitive procedures (beauty contests) – tailored to the specific risk profile of the business activity.
