INSURANCE LAW

PLMJ has considerable experience in counselling its clients in matters involving the various aspects of the insurance industry and the related area of civil liability - sectors of undeniable economic importance where there is a continued growing demand for legal services.

The creation of the insurance law team is PLMJ’s way of building on existing experience and gaining further experience, looking to provide its clients with specialised multidisciplinary services that cover the various aspects or viewpoints of the problem in a structured and integrated manner. This is the only road to take given the increasing complexity of the problems involved and the sophistication of the products and transactions which require more than blanket solutions.

To this end, the insurance law team is composed of experienced lawyers practiced in providing legal advice in the various areas of law that impact on the insurance industry and civil liability. Their specific disciplinary skills cover regulatory and supervisory matters, issues related to the insurance contract and consumers, competition, tax, mergers and acquisitions and arbitration and disputes, among others.

The integration of the various cross-practice area specialists at PLMJ into a single multidisciplinary team of lawyers guarantees that services are provided with the quality, depth and coverage that clients require.
