For more than 25 years, Freeborn has been providing sophisticated insurance-related services to both insurance companies and brokers around the country in complex coverage disputes.

From initial claims analysis through trial, we have deep experience with a broad range of coverages, including:

  • Comprehensive General Liability
  • Directors and Officers
  • Property
  • Builder’s Risk
  • Professional Services Liability
  • Umbrella
  • Life
  • Disability 

We have litigated many issues of first impression in state and federal courts, including multi-policy and multi-year allocation issues, policy triggers for long tail claims, scope of pollution exclusions, bad faith denials of coverage and extra-contractual damages. Recognizing our deep experience with insurance coverage issues, state receivers have retained Freeborn to handle the often complex coverage issues associated with insurance companies in rehabilitation or liquidation.
 
Over the years, we have maintained strong working relationships with industry-leading technical experts in the use of computer databases to solve complex insurance allocation issues and causation experts on policy trigger matters, as well as private equity firms specializing in buyouts of corporate insurance portfolios.  We also have developed sophisticated in-house tools for organizing, supporting and managing decades worth of historic insurance coverage and the voluminous e-discovery requests and production.
