The insurance sector operates under a comprehensive regulatory architecture - Solvency II for prudential supervision, the Insurance Distribution Directive
Insurance Law covers legal assessment, document preparation and implementation support in Europe. It is typically relevant to businesses, investors and organisations operating or transacting in one or more countries. The precise rules, competent authority and procedure depend on the subject matter, jurisdiction and facts, with EU and national law considered together.
The applicable framework depends on the subject of the service, governing law and countries in which the structure or transaction has effect. EU law and current national legislation are assessed together.

The insurance sector operates under a comprehensive regulatory architecture - Solvency II for prudential supervision, the Insurance Distribution Directive for conduct of business - and generates complex disputes over coverage, exclusions, and subrogation. We advise insurers, reinsurers, intermediaries, and policyholders across regulatory, transactional, and contentious matters.
On the regulatory side, we advise on licence applications, Solvency II capital and governance compliance, and the product-oversight-and-governance (POG) rules that apply to insurers and intermediaries.
On the disputes side, we represent clients in coverage disputes, subrogation claims, and regulatory-enforcement proceedings, drawing on both the contractual terms and the applicable mandatory-law provisions governing insurance contracts.
