Brokerage

Need a new environmental insurance product for your specific exposure? Our team of experts can take you safely through every stage of the complex process of purchasing one:
• Pre-Underwriting/Exposure Analysis

• Negotiating/drafting language that fits the risks and is legally sufficient
• Binding and Policy Issuance (is the language right at each stage?)
• Claims handling – presenting the claim properly to the insurer

Risk Strategy Review

Do you have an environmental problem but are afraid to look at it too closely? Our legal and risk management experts will review and analyze your risk based on the available relevant documents (and maybe a site visit). Based on that review, we will recommend a strategy for managing your exposure which may include risk control (remediation plans), and risk transfer options including contractual risk transfer and insurance. Where appropriate, we will put in contact with other engineering, legal, and real estate development firms that can help to implement our recommended risk management options.
