  I was a member of the team that represented the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey with respect to all of its property insurance claims arising out of the September 11 terrorists attacks, as well as the owner of an adjacent landmark building in connection with its September 11 losses.My arbitration experience includes the representation of one of the world’s largest banks in an international arbitration involving political risk insurance and reinsurance; an international energy provider in connection with nuclear fuel rod losses; a transportation insurer in a reinsurance dispute concerning claims handling; and a leading life insurance company against its reinsurer.I have been heavily involved in all aspects of international Bermuda Form insurance arbitrations on behalf of clients involving a wide array of issues, including, among others, the expected or intended defense and maintenance deductible, propriety and scope of the notice of (integrated) occurrence, streamlining discovery, allocation and apportionment of losses between covered and uncovered components, reasonableness of the underlying defense efforts and settlements, the known loss or occurrence defense, retroactive coverage and efforts to rescind or void the policy in its entirety based on alleged misrepresentations in the Bermuda Form application.
