New York litigation boutique Hoguet Newman Regal & Kenney, LLP houses a policyholder-only contingent that represents a variegated client roster in many types of coverage disputes arising from natural disasters, pollution, fraud, and more. It has a notable environmental liabilities practice, and under the leadership of Dorothea Regal, who has over 40 years of experience handling environmental and long-tail claims at her disposal, the team won one complete victory for agrochemical company Syngenta in complex coverage litigation surrounding losses resulting from the use of a herbicide. Regal is supported by a team of partners and counsels, including John Curley, who advises clients on a range of commercial insurance lines, flexible litigator Miriam Manber, who acts for clients at the state and federal court level, and Bradley Nash, who guides a varied client base through coverage disputes concerning a wide variety of insurance products, with an emphasis on D&O coverage claims by insureds facing civil lawsuits and criminal prosecutions.
