Insurance Coverage
Insurance Coverage Attorneys In Albany, New York
The experienced insurance coverage attorneys at O'Connor First include specialists in virtually all types of insurance policies, including commercial property, inland marine, builder’s risk, professional liability (errors and omissions or E&O), directors and officers (D&O), commercial and personal automobile, homeowners, personal liability, umbrella liability and commercial general liability.
At O'Connor First, our lawyers provide representation to insurers in first-party and third-party claim-related matters, giving advice and defending contractual and extra-contractual claims and litigation. We know that in this challenging environment, any insurance dispute requires an immediate assessment of exposure to extra-contractual claims, the proper timing of responses and investigation, as well as potential implications of decisions made in each dispute. We provide knowledgeable legal counsel and determined advocacy, while working closely with our insurer clients to ensure efficient, cost-effective legal solutions. As each coverage dispute is unique, we work with our clients to develop a plan for resolution, which may include positioning the matter for settlement either through interim agreements, negotiations among counsel, mediation, or formal arbitration or litigation.
