Commercial Litigation / Insurance Coverage Law
Businesses and individuals often find themselves in legal disputes over matters that they would not have anticipated would lead to litigation. With the rapid changes in technology and ongoing refinement of the law, insurers are called upon to defend and cover risks that were never contemplated. As litigation has become more common and disputes more complex, our attorneys have successfully represented hundreds of clients with insurance coverage disputes including corporations, insurers, reinsurers and individual policyholders. Whether through negotiation, litigation or some form of Alternative Dispute Resolution, our attorneys have saved millions of dollars for clients and have solved problems efficiently in Commercial General Liability, Directors and Officers, Errors and Omissions and Property insurance claims. Our attorneys are well versed in all aspects of insurance practice and litigation.
Insurance Recovery. We have a well deserved national reputation for our work in recovering insurance coverage for our clients. Our attorneys have recovered millions of dollars in wrongfully denied Insurance coverage for Businesses and Individuals. Whether we are representing a large corporation whose insurer is refusing to honor its coverage commitment or an individual who has had their life, health or homeowners insurance denied our attorneys can bring efficient and effective action to protect our client’s rights.
Administrative Appeals. Routine appeals of insurance benefit denials are rarely routine. The information submitted and arguments made to an insurance company at this stage are often more important than arguments made after a lawsuit is filed, and an effective and thorough administrative appeal to the insurer can often save thousands of dollars in legal expenses. Rich Carter attorneys have provided hundreds of clients with legal assistance including the preparation of appeal letters and the review and interpretation of policy language.
Declaratory Judgment Actions. We have handled disputes for clients in state and federal courts throughout the D.C. Metropolitan region, Virginia, Maryland, and nationally. They are especially experienced in resolving time sensitive matters of coverage where litigation has been threatened or has already begun. Our attorneys prepare their litigation strategy when the lawsuit begins, with the plan to resolve coverage matters on dispositive motions without the need for trial.
Preliminary Injunctions. Unfortunately, some clients find themselves unable to wait for a ruling at trial or on a dispositive motion and need an immediate adjudication of their rights. Our attorneys can prepare motions for temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions so that clients' rights are protected in a timely manner
