First Party Insurance Coverage Litigation

The attorneys at Brewer Krause Brooks Chastain & Meisner, PLLC who handle these matters focus on the representation of insurers on a state and national basis in first party insurance coverage investigation and litigation, ranging from litigation dealing with first party policy interpretation, claims handling practice and procedures, bad faith and extra-contractual exposure, business interruption, fidelity losses, life, property, arson, misrepresentation and fraud, to consultation with insurance carriers regarding the development and drafting of insurance policy provisions and endorsements. Our attorneys are involved at a national level in cases involving public adjusters and the appraisal process, as well as the investigation of insurance fraud.

Our attorneys pride themselves on the ability to quickly and accurately advise clients on a state, regional and national basis with regard to insurance coverage issues shortly after the claim is reported, often assisting through the adjustment and investigation stage of the claim once coverage issues have become apparent. If declaratory relief is necessary, our attorneys recognize the benefit of directed and timely filing and prosecution. Our attorneys have experience in all types of insurance contracts, whether form filled, manuscript or follow form, property, casualty, health, disability, life, excess, umbrella or reinsurance.
