Political risk

Contentious and non-contentious advice and expertise for organisations dealing with socio-political and military upheaval throughout the globe.

The constantly changing socio-political nature of different regions of the world, coupled with the rise of globalisation and the search for new markets, has meant an increasing need for companies to insure themselves against political risk and terrorism.

Weightmans’ London Market Team advises large corporate businesses, ship owners and operators, port authorities, insurers, intermediaries and reinsurers on the drafting, interpretation and application of policy coverage before, during and after the happening of such events. 

We are experienced in overseeing and coordinating with the best insurance and reinsurance lawyers in locations all around the world.

Our team members have particular expertise in the handling and resolution of complex insurance and reinsurance disputes. In every case, we focus on achieving the best possible outcome via the most efficient means, whether by negotiated settlement, mediation, arbitration or court proceedings.
