(Client: Multinational insurer)

The firm handles COVID-19 business interruption claims across the country, litigating cases in California, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, New Jersey, Ohio and elsewhere.  The firm has extensive experience representing insurers in all phases of coverage, bad-faith, and complex litigation.
