Pérez-Llorca’s Insurance and Reinsurance practice is distinguished by its Ibero-American reach and deep knowledge of the insurance sector. Our dedication and specialization enable us to meet a wide range of needs in this area, providing robust, comprehensive, and multidisciplinary solutions tailored to the specific features of the insurance world.
Our team provides a full-service offering for the insurance and reinsurance sector, combining outstanding capabilities and specialized knowledge in corporate law, mergers and acquisitions, regulation, and litigation, as well as in areas that directly impact the day-to-day operations of insurers and reinsurers, such as tax, labor, data protection and privacy, corporate governance, criminal risk prevention, infrastructure, and competition, among others.
Under the leadership of Joaquín Ruiz Echauri, whose know-how and decades of experience as a specialist in insurance and reinsurance are widely recognised, the team rigorously addresses the three key areas of focus for the sector:
• Corporate and M&A: We advise on all types of transactional matters, from traditional M&A to insurance-specific transactions, including portfolio transfers, reinsurance deals, bancassurance and distribution agreements, cross-border mergers, and the restructuring of insurance groups.
• Regulatory: We provide comprehensive support on the operations and governance of insurance companies and intermediaries, as well as in their dealings with administrative authorities, authorisation processes, and other regulatory procedures. Our advice includes assistance with inspections, the design and structuring of new products and insurance solutions, insurtech initiatives, and the creation of optimal insurance distribution networks for the industry.
• Litigation: We support our clients throughout the entire claims process, from coverage denials and the management of complex or high-volume claims, to disputes concerning the scope and limits of coverage or reinsurance conflicts. We are also involved in all aspects of insurance-specific claims, with a commitment to avoiding unnecessary litigation whenever possible.
