MacElree Harvey lawyers have represented insureds, insurance companies, reinsurers and brokers in connection with a wide variety of disputes relating to insurance coverage. Those coverage issues have included environmental, product liability and employment policies. 

In addition, MacElree Harvey's experienced team represents companies in numerous industries and businesses that have chosen to have significant self-insured retention coverage or are entirely self-insured. This representation has included experience as coordinating counsel for repetitive cases brought in multiple jurisdictions. These types of matters include, but are not limited to:

  • Product liability
  • Toxic tort defense
  • Mass tort litigation
  • General commercial liability
  • Accounting malpractice
  • Aviation
  • Subrogation matters
  • Project owners, architects and contractors
  • Schools and universities

Broad experience in these matters allows MacElree Harvey to provide unique representation of companies even before litigation is brought. Recent matters include:

  • The successful defense through trial of an uninsured personal injury matter.
  • Resolution through mediation and settlement of a products liability matter in a major industrial accident.
  • The successful dismissal through preliminary motion practice of aviation crash litigation involving multiple deaths.
  • A defense verdict for a company in a trial involving a serious injury occurring on the premises of a company.

MacElree Harvey believes that many disputes, especially those relating to insurance coverage, can be resolved without the burden of a trial. Seeing these issues from all sides, MacElree Harvey provides a special perspective and brings a particular commitment to Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in these areas which helps us to better serve our clients' needs and minimize the time and expense of protracted litigation.
