Damon &
Morey LLP is recognized as a major litigation firm in the area of
insurance defense, and we excel in all aspects of insurance law and
litigation.
The firm’s Insurance Defense Group includes a staff of 30 experienced
insurance attorneys, as well as several paralegals and registered
nurses, who aggressively work to resolve claims and coverage concerns in
such areas as:
We
handle all forms of tort litigation for insurers and self-insured
corporate clients including automobile, comprehensive general liability,
professional errors and omissions, officers and directors liability,
municipal liability, product liability, toxic tort, transportation,
environmental claims and coverage, repetitive stress injury, securities
litigation, life, health and accident, fire, extended coverage, and
homeowners.
Damon & Morey’s insurance attorneys handle proceedings before
administrative entities, including matters pertaining to OSHA, hospital
licensing certificates of need and worker’s compensation claims. A
substantial portion of the firm’s practice involves the defense of
professionals including physicians, nurses, and other health care
providers. These services includes contract drafting, negotiation and
evaluation and risk management and analysis. Our attorneys have a strong
history of reducing claim exposure by identifying and addressing areas
of potential conflict before they become problems or before they result
in litigation.
Damon & Morey engages in all phases of trial and appellate practice on
both the Federal and State level. The firm’s attorneys have successfully
represented many of the nation’s major manufacturers in a wide variety
of lawsuits. Our involvement with national and international
corporations has allowed our attorneys to represent clients in a wide
variety of claims. Through our effective management of complex
multi-party cases and our ability to litigate cases to successful
verdicts, Damon & Morey has earned its place as one of the top
litigation firms in Western New York.
Our attorneys actively share their knowledge of insurance law and
coverage with clients through ongoing seminars and workshops and by
offering assistance with the drafting of specialized policy language,
claims-handling materials and guidelines.
Damon & Morey is proud of its reputation in the area of insurance law.
While we take pride in our ability to avoid the expense of unnecessary
litigation through the successful use of arbitration, the attorneys
stand ready to vigorously defend our clients against unfounded claims
using all the experience, staff and resources available to us.
