Intentional Torts

Intentional tort claims, assault and battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, false imprisonment, intentional interference with contract, to name a few, are particularly troubling because there is no insurance coverage available for them. Often they are made at the same time as claims for which there is coverage under an insurance policy, and we know how to defend these claims with the same vigor and zealousness as a covered claim. It is our professional duty, and we take it seriously.  We have experience in guiding clients through the maze created by pleading intentional torts and the expertise to handle those claims for which coverage is not available. We recognize the opportunities and pitfalls that exist in defending these claims and the risk to the client and the carrier of not handling them properly. Our lawyers can help resolve intentional tort claims, containing risk and solving your problems.
