TO stands ready to assist you in all aspects of the insurance recovery process:
We are well versed in understanding an insurer’s obligation to provide coverage and to act in good faith and to deal fairly. We leverage this understanding to secure the carrier’s agreement to perform and to protect its insured. On these lines, we are well versed in prosecuting actions for declaratory relief designed to compel the insurer to perform in accordance with their contractual, common law and legal obligations. Similarly, we are well versed in prosecuting claims against carriers for bad faith, and extra contractual damages including punitive damages.
Our expertise includes understanding the role of brokers in the insurance arrangement, including what duties they do or do not have relative to their insured or to the carrier.
Our goal in each matter is to achieve the right result and maximum recovery for you, ever mindful that these goals should be achieved within budgetary guidelines.
