One of the most significant insurance insolvencies since the Great Depression was the $10 billion failure that occurred in 1991. Our work in the insolvency led to four of the leading appellate decisions on the subject, and resulted in a recovery to our clients of more than $1.8 billion, together with their legal fees and costs. Pillsbury currently represents clients in a wide range of complex reinsurance matters arising out of both the London and U.S. markets. We represent ceding companies and reinsurers in reinsurance disputes in a variety of forums, including arbitrations and state and federal court litigation. Pillsbury also possesses extensive experience counseling clients on issues arising out of reinsurance relationships, such as insolvency issues, commutation and audit rights. Thus, we are well positioned to represent our clients in all of their reinsurance matters.
