Insurance Coverage Litigation

Our clients benefit from our trial experience and our strong reputation. Many of the firm's attorneys practice exclusively in coverage analysis and litigation, and Christie, Pabarue, Mortensen and Young is widely recognized as having one of the most experienced and sophisticated insurance coverage litigation practice groups in the United States.

What sets Christie, Pabarue, Mortensen and Young apart is our trial experience. Our attorneys represent insurers throughout the country both as plaintiffs and defendants in declaratory judgment actions-those brought to determine primary or excess coverage obligations or to coordinate coverage obligations among numerous insurers.

We have litigated primary and excess coverage obligations for environmental cleanup and for mass tort claims arising from asbestos, industrial chemical exposure and HIV-contaminated blood products. Our attorneys have tried both the liability and damages aspects of large coverage cases to jury verdicts in several states. We have appeared and argued coverage issues in the highest courts of five states and in federal appellate courts throughout the eastern half of the country. This experience means that our clients receive seasoned representation, no matter what the venue.
