We represent insurers and reinsurers in contentious matters before all Swiss courts and authorities, drawing on many years of courtroom experience. Our practice is centred on liability defence and insurance coverage disputes, particularly complex, high-value and cross-border claims. We work closely with our clients to define the right strategy for each matter – whether early resolution or full-scale litigation – and support them at every stage from initial case assessment through to trial, appeal, and enforcement. 

In parallel, our lawyers regularly act as party counsel in insurance and reinsurance arbitrations, giving our clients the benefit of deep market insight and courtroom experience to resolve even their most complex insurance and reinsurance disputes efficiently and decisively.
