Joe Eizenberg

Insurance, professional negligence and claims handling.

After graduating from the University of Sydney, Joe practised at a specialist insurance firm in Sydney before moving to the UK in 2003 working in the professional indemnity department of a national firm. He joined Beale & Company’s Bristol office shortly after it opened in 2006. Joe has developed a strong reputation with clients for his clear and concise advice and commercial approach to defending professional indemnity claims on behalf of both insurers and insureds. He specialises in defending both large and small claims against accountants, solicitors, barristers, surveyors and IFAs. He also assists accountants and solicitors in defending disciplinary proceedings instigated against them by their professional bodies. Joe regularly advises insurers and brokers on policy interpretation and coverage issues, and has assisted insurers with the drafting of policy wordings. Joe also manages Delegated Authority and Claims Handling Schemes for a range of national and multinational insurers.
