Keely Writes Commentary on How Insurance Policy Language Can Impact Valuation in the Legacy Sector

In his recent commentary article for the UK trade magazine Insurance Insider, Freeborn Litigation Practice Group and Insurance and Reinsurance Industry Team member Sean Patrick Keely reviews some recent New York Supreme Court cases that serve as reminders of how much policy language matters when it comes to valuing a book of business in today’s legacy market.
