Environmental Insurance Claims

Disputes regarding environmental insurance claims often require the consideration of a wide range of economic factors. With our deep expertise in valuation, finance, econometric analysis, and class certification issues, we can help clients build a strong case through the application of sound economic principles and insightful analysis of empirical and quantitative evidence.

Our work in environmental insurance claims has included original studies of the effect of asbestos on real estate values, settlement negotiations to cover environmental remediation expenses, and the allocation of clean-up costs.

Our recent casework has included supporting an insurer in negotiations involving future environmental remediation costs at former manufactured gas plant sites.
