Writing successful programs requires insurers to forecast the long range vicissitudes of risks and exposure—difficult calculations in the current economic climate. With a wealth of historic insurance knowledge and in-depth understanding of current issues, Mendes provides astute guidance.
Our counseling services have helped hundreds of insurers evaluate risk, determine premiums, gauge volume, anticipate claims and ensure that policy wordings are unambiguous. We offer coverage opinions to insurers on primary and excess insurance and to reinsurers on facultative, quota share, treaty and other types of reinsurance claims.
