Eric Jesse prides himself on representing corporate policyholders on insurance recovery matters, including in coverage disputes with insurers, on mergers and acquisitions, and in the placement and renewal of insurance programs. He works regularly with private equity sponsors and strategic buyers and has substantial experience with representations and warranties (R&W) insurance, directors and officers (D&O) coverage, and cyber insurance.
When insurers refuse to honor their coverage obligations, Eric represents policyholders in claim negotiations and coverage litigation. He has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars of insurance proceeds under a range of policies, including R&W, D&O, and cyber policies, and he strategically focuses on the issues that can drive meaningful resolutions while working to avoid the distractions that insurers try to insert into the dispute process.
