Insurance
Insurance is an industry with longstanding traditions. It is currently seeing rapid development adapted to technological development and internationalisation. Practically anything can be insured, and insurance is also used as an investment product. For the sake of the insurance customers and fair competition between operators, a number of demands are imposed, not only on the contents of the insurance products, but on the operators and their conduct when communicating them.
Wiersholm's insurance lawyers have an industry understanding built up over decades of close cooperation with industry operators, something that is recognised in international rankings. They also hold posts in the industry, through which they have been conducive to developing the law. This close combination of traditionally legal and industry understanding places us in a special position. Wiersholm's insurance lawyers do not work exclusively for a specific industry operator, but for both customers, insurers and insurance intermediaries.
