Comprehensive defense strategy achieves success
At Pomeroy, Heller & Ley, LLC, our insurance defense attorneys have tried hundreds of cases and achieved greater than a 90 percent success rate. With more than two decades of focused experience, our team brings the in-depth knowledge and practical courtroom skills New Jersey insurers rely on to resolve complex coverage and liability disputes.
Our case strategy always anticipates the possibility of litigation. From the outset, we:
Review the policy and analyze applicable terms and conditions.
Evaluate exposure and risk to the insurance carrier.
Model best- and worst-case scenarios for settlement versus trial so decision-makers can weigh options with clarity.
Every client receives a tailored defense plan. When appropriate, we pursue mediation or arbitration to reach efficient, cost-effective resolutions. When alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is not in our client’s best interests—or the parties do not agree—we are fully prepared to defend the case in court. For general information about ADR in New Jersey, see the New Jersey Courts resources, an authoritative overview for litigants and counsel (njcourts.gov).
