The benefit of our focused experience is a greater understanding and appreciation for the complicated regulatory regimes companies in these industries must maneuver. Many times, these engagements are affected by legal regimes in jurisdictions around the world, many of which are often conflicting. We often call on lawyers in our firm with extensive insurance regulatory and corporate experience for assistance in structuring and executing these transactions. Because of this focus, we bring to our clients an integrated, thoughtful approach, which leads to a better client result.
