This area covers defending insured and insured-led liability and property claims brought against an insurer or policyholder, including coverage disputes, bad faith allegations, and policy interpretation issues under English law. A solicitor practises in this area by reviewing policy wording, drafting and filing defences, managing disclosure, handling witness statements, and negotiating settlements or statutory settlements where appropriate. They coordinate with insurers, adjusters, adjusters, and expert witnesses, and may represent clients at court or in pre-action protocols, including defence in personal injury and property damage claims.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

They handle complex policy interpretations, causation and coverage disputes, coordination with insurers, and the use of expert evidence to defend or mitigate exposure in court proceedings. They deal with court or tribunal procedures, pre-action protocols, and potentially appeals, ensuring regulatory and professional standards are met through appropriate conduct and evidence handling.

Tagged solicitor Paul Hatton

I was devastated when my brand new car was stolen at work and then to compound it found myself being investigated by my insurance company and some private investigators. Days ran to weeks ran to months. Paul shut this down in a week for me. He gave me very good measured advice and cut to the core of the issues quickly. He didn't inflate his costs, was timely and worked hard right upto the claim being settled in my favour. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Tagged solicitor Alexandra Lush

I came to Ashtons via a car accident insurance claim, and like the majority of people, this was something that was new to me, so it was very daunting to say the least. Alexandra's helpful, knowledgeable and friendly manner was extremely welcomed. Though the case took 6yrs to conclude, I was never made to feel like any question was silly or something I should already know. Alexandra always answered and explained any reasons fully, not once did I feel pressured or unsupported.
