Naschitz, Brandes, Amir & Co.Naschitz, Brandes, Amir & Co. is one of the few full-service firms to have a well-developed tort and insurance litigation practice. Clients praise the ‘exemplary professionalism and conduct’ of the group led by Gil Atar and Tamar Arad Kareth, both of whom are vastly experienced litigators. Atar and Shay Cohen recently acted for a major industrial control company in a $100m case brought by a client and its insurer alleging negligence in the manufacturing and installation processes, which purportedly led to a fire. Neta Heichal-Yassur, who handles insurance claims spanning property and liability, aviation law cases, and class actions, also plays a pivotal role in the practice. The firm also provides corporate support and regulatory advice.
