This portion of the work of Deutch & Weiss involves the defense of insurers, their insureds and self-insured companies in lawsuits involving bodily injury, personal injury, property damage, real estate agent negligence and products liability claims. The representation of our clients includes all phases of file handling, from initial claims analysis, all discovery, motion hearings, mediations, arbitrations and trial and appellate work.

Deutch & Weiss is involved in providing representation to insurance companies on insurance contract interpretation. This coverage representation has led to suggestions for insurance policy revisions. However, the assistance provided does not end here as seminars are provided to claims staff to assist in educating them about their companies' insurance policies, changes in the law and file handling modifications - including the revision of claims manuals.

The representation of our clients is not limited to defense of lawsuits. We are involved with our clients in the claims stage as well. When the loss is unusually large or complex, advice is regularly sought. Often, the files are transferred to the firm for complete handling. At this point, Deutch & Weiss have been involved in assisting our clients with the investigation of the loss, retention of experts and evidence preservation. This early involvement helps to formulate a comprehensive and coherent defense once the matter is placed into litigation, if the matter cannot be resolved earlier.

Another portion of the work of this firm involves subrogation recovery efforts. In these matters, the adverse parties are often members of inter-company arbitration organizations. Thus, the preparation of thorough and persuasive arbitration submissions is standard operating procedure. When the adverse parties are not signatories of inter-company arbitration treaties, Deutch & Weiss make every effort to resolve our clients' claim in an efficient and effective manner prior to litigation. However, when such a result cannot be achieved, our clients' claims are promptly resolved through the legal process.
