practice.

heavy industry operating in harsh conditions and at the
cutting edge of technology.
We are widely recognised as the ‘go to’ firm on the
technicalities of energy insurance and are frequently
instructed to engage in policy and programme reviews on
contracts covering everything from drilling rigs to their
insurance of offshore liabilities. We are experienced in
property and liability claims as well as BI, LOPI and DSU
matters.
Ince Insurance / 2020
Energy
As the search for renewables moved offshore, it was natural
for a firm with a strong marine insurance reputation to
become heavily involved. Today, the energy industry, both on
and offshore, poses some of the greatest challenges to the
insurance market.
We (are proud to) have established a wealth of experience in
both the energy and insurance markets and as a result
consider ourselves true specialists in the energy insurance
field. We deal with direct covers and facultative reinsurance.
We act for a broad cross section of insurers, buyers and
brokers in the energy industry, across a range of high value
onshore risks. Our offshore practice derives from
contractors, oil and gas traders and the energy insurance
market itself, from pure marine risks such as collision and
salvage, through to issues such as control of wells.
The experience of our lawyers includes:
- Energy Upstream
- Offshore Construction
- Operating Risks
- Drilling Risks
06
We are familiar with all types of policy, including Building
Guarantee, Commercial Combined, Global Master/Local,
Household, Property Owners Liability and Facultative
Reinsurance of property risks. We regularly advise on issues
of pre-contractual misrepresentation and non-disclosure, the
interpretation of exclusions, claims conditions, policyholder
fraud and, in the context of large natural catastrophes,
aggregation.
Our industry expertise means that in addition to expert legal
advice we can provide you with real commercial insight. We
can advise you on property insurance claims relating to:
- Construction and engineering
- Energy and natural resources
- Manufacturing
- Mining
- Real estate – domestic and commercial
- Waste management
Ince Insurance / 2020
Property & Construction
Whether it results from a storm, flood, fire or explosion,
property work can be complex. That’s why you need a law
firm with deep knowledge of the property insurance market
and the expertise that comes from having done decades of
work in this area. We specialise in both UK and international
work – our property expertise is spread across our global
network of offices. As specialists across the spectrum of
property insurance matters, we can help you with everything
from product enhancement to policy drafting, coverage
advice to claims handling.
Whatever problem you face, you can be confident that we will
have dealt with a similar problem before. We can advise you
on:
- Business interruption
- First party property
- Fraud
- Subrogated recovery actions
- Third party property/property liability
07
We have advised in relation to numerous classes of business
and the different facets of the reinsurance market. We draw
on our experience both of disputes and of the practicalities of
the market in drafting reinsurance policy wordings and in
responding to judicial and legislative developments. We have
dedicated teams focused upon:
- Captives
- ART (including insurance linked securities, sidecars ILWs
and collateralised reinsurance).
We also continue to advise the legacy and run-off markets.
We have experience in all of the issues and claims that arose
from business written right up to the 1990s including long tail
asbestos and pollution risks, the LMX Spiral, commutations
and the recoverability of commutation payments. We are
active participants in the industry body, IRLA (Insurance and
Reinsurance Legacy Association) and advise many clients on
how best to collect any remaining reinsurance debts.
Alternative Risk Transfers (ART)
Treaty and facultative reinsurance are the traditional
methods of transferring the risk of loss. But many risks –
because of their size, profile or uncertain nature – cannot
easily be transferred to the conventional market. That is
where ART comes in.
Our specialist reinsurance expertise, combined with our
transactional and regulatory experience, means that we are
able to advise in relation to a wide range of ART
arrangements from both a contentious and non-contentious
perspective.
Ince Insurance / 2020
Reinsurance & Alternative Risk
Transfer (ART)
Reinsurance
A reinsurance policy reflects the complex business
relationship between an insurer and its reinsurer. In handling
any reinsurance issue, you need a law firm with specialist
expertise in reinsurance issues; a firm that understands the
unique challenges in a reinsurance relationship, including:
- The trust placed by the reinsurer in its cedant
- The sharing of risk (understanding the subtle nuances
between treaty and facultative, proportional and excess
of loss)
- The management of claims, when must a reinsurer follow,
who has control and how it is exercised
We have many years of experience and deep knowledge of
the reinsurance market. We have acted in some of most
important cases determining reinsurance principles including:
- The duty of utmost good faith (the House of Lords in Pan
Atlantic v Pine Top and PCW Syndicates)
- Aggregation (the seminal decision on “event” in Dawson’s
Field)
- Follow settlements
- Claims control
Our views have been cited with approval in some of the
leading reinsurance cases, including by the House of Lords in
for example, WASA v Lexington.
08
Insurance-linked securities
We advise on the wide range of products that are available to
offer insurers the ability to access capital markets and
investment banks for capital and to provide investors with
the opportunity to gain exposure to insurance risks. In
particular we advise on:

- Catastrophe bonds
- Swaps, including longevity swaps
- Transformer structures necessary to enable the issue of
ILSs
- The efficacy of security arrangements holding underlying
assets

more aggressively managed while at the same time

risks. We have acted on claims involving dairy farms, pig
breeding and rearing operations, poultry breeding farms, zoos
and safaris, both on a direct and a Facultative Reinsurance
basis.

ways in which the smooth running of an event can be
affected. We have extensive experience of advising on

Bloodstock, livestock and aquaculture insurance are niche
products. That’s why you need a law firm that understands
your business. We are one of the very few firms that can claim
to have real expertise in this area, having advised Lloyd’s
syndicates and London and international insurers for many

policy drafting to coverage advice to claims handling.

fine art and specie claims. We can advise you on large,
complex and commercially sensitive disputes but are also
adept at dealing with lower value matters on a cost effective

Ince Insurance / 2020
Political Risk & Trade Credit
Political risk
Political Risk is one of the most innovative and exciting
classes of insurance. We played an active role in creating the
original private market political risk insurances placed in the
1970s and have been a recognised market leader ever since.
When the Lloyd’s Market began to underwrite export credit
insurance in the 1990s, we developed an expertise in Trade
Credit insurance.
Our contentious practice has handled numerous claims in
countries ranging from Afghanistan through to Zambia. In
addition to claims triggered by war, revolution, coups d’état
and other political violence such as terrorism, the revival of
resource nationalism has brought with it claims arising from
government intervention and non-performance around the
globe.
As specialists in this sector we can help you with everything
from drafting and advice on policy wordings; guidance on
actions to be taken when claims situations threaten; review
of claims under the policies (and reinsurances); and, when
required, the resolution of any disputes either amicably or by
way of litigation/arbitration. An important part of our role has
been the preservation, pursuit and enforcement of recovery
rights against third parties including the intrusive state or
government institution responsible for a political risk.
13
“This firm is noted for its
expertise on high-value insurance
and reinsurance disputes, and it
has established itself as a leader
in this sphere, especially in the
aviation, marine and energy
sectors.”
— Chambers & Partners UK
Ince Insurance / 2020
Trade credit
Allied to our Political Risk practice, we developed an
expertise in trade credit insurance in the 1990s. Since then,
insurance providing cover for commercial credit risk has
developed significantly and is often provided in conjunction
with cover for political risks.
Our services include drafting, refining and advising on policy
wordings, including ones which constitute Basel II compliant
credit mitigation instruments.
We have advised clients on contractual defaults, including
those prompted by the recession, from debtors coming from
many different industries and based in numerous countries.
Whatever problem you face, you can be confident that we will
have dealt with a similar problem before. In addition to issues
arising out of Political Risks we can advise on:
- Non-payment by corporate entities
- Non-honouring of guarantees, letters of credit,
promissory notes, arbitration awards
- Unfair calling of bonds
- Non-repayment of advance payments
And in the event of claim payment:
- Restructuring of the debt
- Subrogated recovery actions
