Keith Bethlehem Email & Phone Number

If you are an insurance specialist in D&O, Financial institutions and Professional indemnity risks, I would be delighted to advise you on coverage and associated liabilities. For the past 20 years in Australia and globally, I have acted for insurers and their insureds in relation to financial institutions and directors’ and officers’ insurance risks, plus professional indemnity insurance matters. My expertise extends to advising insurers on coverage issues and defending litigated claims on behalf of insured individuals and entities. Internationally, I gained extensive experience and networks in the Lloyd’s and London companies' market, specialising in defending claims against financial institutions and investment professionals. In Australia, my experience extends to defending claims against corporations and their directors and officers by aggrieved shareholders, and negligence claims against investment managers, stockbrokers and valuers. Also, I act for both insureds and insurers on policy disputes involving insurance and reinsurance agreements. Recently, I led a high profile case on the operation of section 6 of the Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1946 (NSW), Chubb & Ors v Moore & Ors.Chambers and Partners, Legal 500, Doyle's Guide and Best Lawyers recognise my insurance law expertise, with Chambers describing me as "one of the best technical lawyers in terms of insurance coverage in the market". I have co-authored a chapter entitled, “Directors’ & Officers’ Liability” in the Directors Duties During Insolvency (Thompson, 2007), and presented at various insurance forums in London and Australia.Should you wish to explore with me how I can support you to deal effectively with insurance coverage, litigation and risk management strategies, please contact me via LinkedIn InMail or email me: keith.bethlehem@cbp.com.auSpecialties: Financial Institutions | Directors’ and Officers’ | Professional Indemnity | Policy drafting and interpretation
