Provosty & Gankendorff offers a complete suite of legal defense work for insurance companies. When a client is challenged in Louisiana for issues regarding claims, assertions of bad faith dealing, and coverage issues, we astutely protect their interests through our knowledge of Louisiana courts and standards. Provosty & Gankendorff has been retained as local counsel by a number of international and national corporations and their insurance companies, underwriters, cover holders, managing general agents, brokers, and third-party administrators. Our international clients see us an essential partner as they do work in the United States.

Insurance defense work is a practice area based on trust and long-standing relationships. Although many law firms enter and leave this field depending on the vagaries of the insurance industry, Provosty & Gankendorff remains committed to maintaining our prominence in insurance defense work. In addition, we also represent insureds against a variety of allegations, including damaged goods, defective products, injury claims, environmental issues, toxic tort claims, admiralty and maritime issues (including Jones Act claims and merchant liability claims), oil and gas law claims, and other covered disputes and legal issues.

Provosty & Gankendorff’s experience in insurance law means we understand how to quantify the value of a case and evaluate its success using different strategies. This knowledge helps our clients with their decisions when making or accepting settlement offers or pursuing mediation or litigation.
