Another significant aspect of our insurance group is our reinsurance practice, which has developed extensively over the past 30 years. The attorneys at Golden Rothschild handle a wide variety of reinsurance disputes with stakes into the hundreds of millions of dollars. Our diverse representations have given us a thorough familiarity with and understanding of issues peculiar to reinsurance claims, including (1) the custom and practice of facultative and treaty placements, (2) the function, role and importance of reinsurance intermediaries, (3) the structure of reinsurance and retrocessional programs and (4) the ceding and collection of reinsurance recoverables. We have arbitrated or litigated many of the coverage issues that typically arise in connection with reinsurance claims including occurrence, trigger, follow the fortunes, extra-contractual loss, late notice, and good faith. We have also developed extensive experience in the appropriate allocation of underlying claims to reinsurance treaties.
