Her experience includes handling claims involving professional liability, commercial general liability, umbrella and excess commercial general liability, commercial property, business interruption, extra expense, commercial auto, trucking, technology, and accident and health policies.

With over 22 years of experience representing insurance industry clients, Colleen has handled coverage issues from inception through trial, including numerous appeals. She has represented clients in Federal and State courts across more than 25 states and the Virgin Islands.

Colleen has extensive experience in handling extra-contractual and bad-faith disputes in multiple jurisdictions. She has also represented U.S. and U.K.-based carriers in a wide range of first-party property coverage matters, including disputes related to mold, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Clients routinely ask Colleen for her counsel on third-party coverage matters, such as construction defects, personal and advertising injury, product defects and more.

Recognizing the inherent risks and costs of litigation, Colleen works closely with her clients to avoid lawsuits by providing an early evaluation of coverage issues and potential exposures and proactively resolving coverage disputes before the commencement of litigation. Her strategic approach and in-depth knowledge of insurance law make her a trusted advisor for insurance industry clients seeking effective resolution of complex coverage disputes.
