Insurance Law

Compass Chambers has extensive expertise in providing advice and litigation services on all aspects of insurance and reinsurance work.

This expertise extends to a wide range of experience, including contentious and advisory work, regulatory issues, policy liability and policy interpretation. Our counsel regularly advise and provide representation on policy liability relating to other work in chambers, such as Personal Injury work and other reparation claims.

Our highly experienced advocates represent pursuers and defenders.  Our clients include insurance companies, brokers, reinsurers and individual.  We have specialist experience in matters involving the Motor Insurers Bureau. 

Members of chambers can offer expert advice and representation in areas including:

  • Accident and Health Insurance
  • Insurance litigation and arbitration
  • Insurance regulation
  • Insurtech
  • Life Insurance and Annuities
  • Professional Liability
  • Property, Casualty and Liability Insurance
  • Reinsurance
  • Risk Management

We offer specialist advice to clients on whether and in what circumstances they may be on risk or whether they have cover under policies. We focus on identifying solutions for clients at the earliest possible stage which can have a significant bearing on costs.

Instructions can be provided to our advocates directly from insurers or companies under the Faculty of Advocates Direct Access Rules. This can provide a fast and cost-effective method of obtaining legal advice. As in every area of our practice, flexible and transparent fee structures can be agreed and tailored to suit any particular Insurance Law case.
