• Technology and intellectual property (including patent, trademark and trade dress disputes, copyright infringement, and unfair competition)
• Commercial and business insurance recovery (including claims arising out of products and other manufacturing-related liability, antitrust and related allegations, insurance company bad faith, alleged director and officer liability, employment events and alleged errors and omissions)
• Bodily injury coverage (including claims arising out of alleged asbestos, mold and other latent injuries, workplace injury, product-related injury, injury arising out of catastrophic accidents, worker's compensation, and “additional insured” claims)
• Environmental liabilities (including cleanups, petroleum contamination, and toxic torts)
• Health care claims (including physician and nursing home disputes)
