Insurance Law & Coverage

Representing clients in insurance matters and coverage litigation has been a cornerstone of GGM’s practice since its inception. Our experience in all phases and areas of insurance law includes coverage litigation, bad faith litigation, as well as providing advice and opinions on a variety of coverage matters. GGM attorneys understand the business of insurance and the legal issues that underpin the insurance sector.

We have provided advice and represented insurers in a wide variety of matters involving errors and omissions policies, primary and excess commercial general liability policies, school leaders policies, claims made and occurrence policies, homeowners policies, automobile policies and life and death policies. We also help clients in situations involving subrogation claims against at-fault third parties so as to get reimbursement for any payments to insureds under their own policies.

Our firm has served as national coverage counsel for a carrier in complex environmental coverage litigation. We have pursued numerous declaratory judgment actions, both in the state and in the federal systems, in order to resolve coverage disputes. Issues and coverage terms that have been analyzed include advertising injury coverage and violations of antitrust laws and patent infringement, personal injury coverage and wrongful eviction and malicious prosecution, exclusions for employment-related claims, exclusions for sexual abuse, recoverability of punitive damages, violations of the Unfair Insurance Practices Act and bad faith, and trigger of coverage and allocation of damages and occupational health, accidental death and competing beneficiary claims.
