  • Investing in the Insurance Sector
    INSURE. REINSURE. REALLY SURE. INVESTING IN THE INSURANCE SECTOR The insurance sector can be opaque and impenetrable. Detailed knowledge of the sector certainly isn’t required for most people in their day-to-day lives but it is needed for those considering investing in it. The complexity of the sector, its regulatory environment and its jargon can be off-putting to potential investors. OUR INSURANCE EXPERTISE Edwards Wildman has first rate experience in, and knowledge of, the business of insurance. We have over 75 lawyers focused on the insurance sector, giving clients valuable advice and guidance from offices in the UK, the US and Hong Kong. We understand insurance, its laws and regulations (including those in the Lloyd’s market), and we speak the language of the industry. VA LUE ADDED Our ability to add value doesn’t end there. Our insurance lawyers frequently work closely with specialists in other areas at Edwards Wildman, which enables us to give clients a service tailored to their needs and own levels of sector focus. OUR EXPERIENCE We advise a wide range of market participants globally: investors (PE, individual, corporate or otherwise), risk carriers in each of the company and Lloyd’s markets, intermediaries, banks and even regulators.

  • Locke Lord and Edwards Wildman to Explore Potential Combination of the Two Law Firms
    Locke Lord and Edwards Wildman to Explore Potential Combination of The Two Law Firms September 10, 2014 – The management teams of Locke Lord LLP and Edwards Wildman Palmer LLP have signed a Letter of Intent to combine the two law firms. If a combination is achieved, the combined firm – Locke Lord Edwards LLP – would have more than 1,000 lawyers in 23 cities around the globe. Locke Lord’s Chair, Jerry Clements, and Edwards Wildman’s Managing Partner, Alan Levin, jointly announced the proposed combination, which is subject to the negotiation and execution of mutually acceptable transaction documents and partner approval. If approved, the combination would occur in early 2015, with Clements serving as Chair of the new firm. Locke Lord Edwards would have gross revenues of approximately $675 million, placing it among the top 50 U.S. law firms listed in The American Lawyer’s annual AmLaw 100 rankings. “We are excited about the possibilities of a combination that would tie together two strong firms with excellent reputations and a focus on providing clients with a broad range of legal services to meet their increasingly complex needs around the globe,” said Clements. “Our two firms share many similarities – exceptional and well-respected lawyers; a wide geographical footprint in the United States and abroad; and highly regarded practices, including energy, private equity, insurance and reinsurance, intellectual property, litigation, real estate, health care, technology and finance. We will spend the next few months working on details and introductions, and hopefully be able to move forward together in a way that offers increasing breadth and depth to our clients.
