Issues arising in members of chambers’ insurance work have included coverage (including avoidance or termination of covers for non-disclosure or misrepresentation, and the construction of policies and treaties), notification problems, and questions of illegality or fraud. Members also appear in arbitrations involving insurance and reinsurance disputes. Members of chambers frequently act for insureds, insurers, reinsurers and intermediaries.

The work done extends over different classes of insurance (e.g. aviation, bloodstock, business interruption, cargo in transit, contractors’ risks, credit risks, energy, fidelity, fire, liability, life assurance, marine, medical, political risks, professional negligence, property, protection and indemnity and space/satellite risks) and reinsurance risks (e.g. excess of loss, facultative, quota share, stop loss and financial reinsurance).

Individual Members have extensive practical experience of the Lloyd’s Names’ and Companies' markets in London. Members were involved in the Lloyd's litigation, and acted in disputes between Lloyd’s syndicates, managing agents and intermediaries in relation to issues concerning the Insurance Mediation Directive. Members also advise on the setting up of insurance companies, compliance with statutory and other regulatory requirements, and the drafting and interpretation of insurance policy wordings.
