1. Insurance Counseling & Recovery Policy Drafting, Negotiation, and Risk Assessment
Insurance policies are legal contracts that require careful drafting and interpretation. We help clients assess and negotiate policy terms tailored to their unique risk profiles. When needed, we also draft custom insurance policies from scratch, ensuring they address emerging risks and comply with evolving regulations. Our focus is on mitigating uncertainty and protecting policyholders from hidden liabilities before claims arise.
Insurance Coverage Analysis and Structuring
Our attorneys perform comprehensive reviews of existing policies, identifying gaps, exclusions, and ambiguities. We assist clients in restructuring coverage to ensure maximum protection against potential claims. This includes tailoring endorsements, negotiating improved policy wordings, and aligning insurance programs with risk management frameworks. By proactively identifying weaknesses in coverage, we empower clients to strengthen their contractual position and avoid costly disputes later.
2. Insurance Counseling & Recovery Litigation and Arbitration
When disputes escalate, effective representation becomes critical. Our experts consult insurance law at both state and federal levels, ensuring clients have robust advocacy in the face of insurer pushback or denial of claims. We provide litigation strategies that balance aggressive pursuit of client rights with efficient resolution techniques that minimize financial and reputational impact.
Global Arbitration & Mediation in Insurance Disputes
We represent clients in domestic and cross-border insurance disputes involving international arbitration institutions and foreign governing law, ensuring effective global enforcement of awards. Our lawyers are experienced in handling disputes under ICC, LCIA, and UNCITRAL rules, providing seamless coordination across jurisdictions. We also counsel clients on mediation strategies, settlement negotiations, and pre-arbitration tactics that preserve business relationships while protecting financial interests.
3. Insurance Counseling & Recovery Lines and Specialized Coverage Areas
SJKP LLP counsels clients on both first-party and third-party insurance across industries.

By understanding the nuances of each coverage area, we provide tailored guidance that addresses the risks unique to each sector.
Directors & Officers (D&O) and Litigation Risk Coverage
We advise on D&O policies to protect corporate executives from personal liability and support companies in managing legal cost risks via litigation risk insurance. Our services include reviewing policy terms, negotiating favorable coverage enhancements, and defending claims involving shareholder suits, regulatory investigations, and securities litigation. By aligning D&O strategies with corporate governance frameworks, we ensure both executives and companies remain protected.
Cyber, Environmental, and Employment Liability Coverage
As risk profiles evolve, we advise clients on cybersecurity insurance, pollution liability coverage, and employment-related coverage, helping them stay compliant and protected. We guide businesses through policy selection, claims processes, and regulatory requirements under laws such as GDPR, CCPA, and EPA standards. With our support, clients secure coverage that mitigates reputational risks and enhances operational resilience in the face of emerging threats.
4. Insurance Counseling & Recovery in M&A and Transactional Contexts
We counsel buyers and sellers on insurance considerations in M&A, joint ventures, and complex transactions.

By integrating insurance structuring into the deal process, we help clients reduce transaction risks, accelerate deal execution, and increase certainty for all parties involved.
Transactional Insurance Structuring
We help clients optimize transaction efficiency by incorporating deal-specific coverage solutions — reducing deal friction, negotiation time, and post-closing disputes.
