LITIGATION EXPERIENCE AND SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTISE

JMBM's Insurance Counseling and Recovery Group is experienced in negotiating settlements with insurance carriers on behalf of our clients. However, when insurance companies deny meritorious claims, JMBM's litigators are vigorous and capable advocates with a strong record of recovery through litigation—including the recovery of attorneys' fees.

Because we are aggressive advocates in court, our effectiveness at trial practice often paves the way for opponents to seek settlement—which we pursue and structure to our clients' best advantage.

Our Group includes lawyers with deep experience in areas like intellectual property, hospitality, cybersecurity, environmental law, employment law, and white collar defense, who bring their considerable expertise to the table when negotiating policy coverages and litigating insurance claims.
