The 'responsive and knowledgeable' insurance and reinsurance department at Campbells is a key part of its wider corporate law support to clients and the firm acts for several of the largest insurance carriers in the Caribbean, as well as being counsel of choice for a number of Cayman government agencies. Well versed in the formation, licensing and ongoing operation of insurance managers on the island, the practice is also a robust choice for contentious matters in the insurance space. Alan Craig advises reinsurers established in, or re-domesticating to, the Cayman Islands, as well as foreign insurers that are active in the domestic market. He co-leads the practice group with Mark Goodman, who is focused on litigation, insolvency and restructuring; and Paul Kennedy, also an expert in contentious insurance work.
