Claims Coverage & Advocacy
Partners Through Every Step of the Transactional Liability Placement and Claims Process
Transactional insurance products facilitate M&A and other extraordinary transactions by transferring risks and indemnity obligations associated with contingent liabilities to an insurer in exchange for a premium. Vanbridge is dedicated not only to expert negotiation of the policy terms and conditions but also to strong claims advocacy when a policy is put to the test, and we have successfully procured recoveries for clients in a number of complex transactional liability claims.
