Insurance
An insurer's reputation for fairness and competence may be its most valuable asset. Harper Grey LLP lawyers have represented insurers and their insureds since the firm was founded in 1907 - we have a long, proven tradition of protecting that asset.
In 2007 and 2008 Lexpert Canadarated us as one of the Top 3 recommended firms for insurance law in British Columbia.
The parties to a contract of insurance owe each other a duty of utmost good faith. The assistance of able, experienced counsel is vital in discharging that duty.
Harper Grey's longstanding commitment to insurers and their clients includes regularly participating the insurance industry’s educational programs, including in-house presentations at the major insurers and participation in the conventions, conferences and seminars of:
- Canadian Defence Lawyers
- Defence Research Institute
- Risk Insurance Managers Association
- Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association
- Aviation Insurance Association
- Insurance Brokers Association of British Columbia
- Credit Union Insurance Services Association of British Columbia
Members of our Insurance Law Group have lectured and written extensively on insurance law and have led insurance-related continuing legal education seminars for many years. Some of our lawyers also guest lecture at the Universtiy of British Columbia Faculty of Law on an annual basis.
Our clients rely upon us to give them advice which is fair, clear and reliable. When appointing counsel to represent their insureds, our clients can confidently say that they have served their clients well by placing them in capable hands.
