Insurance Coverage
McGivney, Kluger, Clark & Intoccia successfully represents many of the nation’s largest insurers. We are proud that our relationships with insurers have been long-lasting since the firm’s founding more than 20 years ago. We handle a wide variety of insurance coverage law including: casualty coverage under commercial general liability policies, umbrella and excess policies; employment practice liability insurance; extra-contractual and bad faith; personal lines coverage for home and auto; professional liability coverage; property coverage; reinsurance; and specialty coverage lines.
Our coverage attorneys practice in all aspects of insurance litigation, such as:
- Litigation and Dispute Resolution. We handle every form of dispute resolution, including negotiation, mediation, arbitration and litigation – anywhere in the country.
- Coverage Advice. We answer coverage questions and develop prudent claims handling strategies. Our attorneys successfully resolve insurance claims before policy holders resort to litigation.
- Policy Wording. We draft language for policies including those concerning new or industry-specific issues to ensure our clients anticipate, evaluate and insure against ever-changing risks.
Regardless of the type of coverage at issue or the posture of the claim, McGivney, Kluger, Clark & Intoccia’s strategies are practical and proven.

Our coverage law attorneys also address a wide range of claims under Employment Practice Liability Insurance (EPLI) coverage, such as sexual harassment, discrimination, and retaliation, as well as professional liability claims concerning: architects and engineers; attorneys; design professionals; insurance professionals; real estate agents and brokers; and others.
