Specialist underwriting agency DUAL Corporate Risks has teamed up with The Judge, a leading broker in Litigation Risk Transfer solutions, to become one of their specialist commercial After The Event Insurance underwriters.
Dual will underwrite the insurance risks whilst The Judge acts as a broker and receives enquiries. Dual will consider all types of cases and commercial disputes for After The Event cover including professional negligence, insolvency, competition, intellectual property, general commercial litigation, investment schemes and defamation.
Jennifer Martin, Dual’s Underwriting Director – Financial Lines, commented: “We anticipate that there will be an increase in enquiries for After The Event cover as more lawyers become aware of its availability and more organisations aim to prevent exposure to the risks of litigation in these difficult economic times.
“Dual is continually looking to expand our range of offerings and After The Event insurance offers an interesting diversification and complements our current financial lines products.”
DUAL will be working with The Judge to offer After the Event insurance from the beginning of October.
