Indemnitycorp launches legal practice
Risk specialist Indemnity Corporation has added a specialist legal division, forecasting strong demand from its insurance broker clients.
“Indemnitylegal” provides specialist legal services including insurance law and litigation, occupational health and safety, local government environment litigation and contract review services.
Lawyers Kevin Gibbons and Natalie Taylor have been recruited by Indemnitycorp MD Jonathan Upton to run the practice.
Mr Gibbons told insuranceNEWS.com.au the company has identified a need for a combined risk management and legal advice service.
“Like accountants, insurance brokers are probably the advisers most frequently contacted by their clients.” he said. “This allows us to handle the insurance implications rather than refer clients to a list of 10 to 15 external insurance lawyers.”
Mr Gibbons cited demand for legal management of public liability, professional liability and product liability claims.
