A variety of domestic and international matters are handled by Mayer Brown‘s insurance team, where a team of transactions and regulatory specialists provide counsel to major brokers, insurers, reinsurers, banks, and investors in connection to a range of issues. In New York, practice co-head David Alberts ’ expertise spans transactions, M&A, and regulatory advisory work in the life and non-life insurance domains, and fellow group leader Stephen Rooney acts for issuers and underwriters in equity, debt, and hybrid securities offerings, and advises on corporate governance, director fiduciary duties, and M&A. Third practice head Bronwyn Pollock is based in California alongside Paul Chen, who is experienced in insurance transactions across the US, Asia, Latin America, and Europe. In the New York office, insurance and reinsurance stakeholders turn to Vikram Sidhu regarding corporate, transactional, and regulatory matters. Richard Spitzer is a key contact for structured finance transactions from catastrophe bonds and mortality bonds to sidecars, and Benjamin Kralstein‘s broad practice includes cross-border reinsurance arrangements. Jared Wilner handles a range of matters, from joint ventures to Insurtech and product development, and Yuliya Feldman focuses on insurance regulatory and transactional work.

‘When selecting a law firm, the ability to communicate very complex legal/commercial concepts to non-native English speakers is extremely important. The Mayer Brown team has demonstrated time and time again that in addition to being experts in the insurance field. They are also very approachable and always willing to take the time to explain things simply until they are clearly understood by all. This is critical in a consensus-based organization. In addition, few firms have the capabilities to handle large, cross-border specialty M&A. MB does.’
‘David Alberts is able to leverage his years of experience to lead his team. He knows when to intervene personally and when to allow more junior partners to manage the deal process. This results in a very cohesive and collaborative team that can deliver results with confidence. Vikram Sidhu is the resident expert on insurance regulatory matters. His familiarity with specific regulators and the regulatory process is critical.’
'The diversity in experience and strengths is what I enjoy. You have an actual expert in complicated reinsurance and ILS. You have former regulators, M&A experts, compliance experts, and exam experts all in one spot.'
