McCarthy Tétrault

The well-balanced insurance practice at McCarthy Tétrault draws on the firm’s leading financial services and dispute resolution groups to advise on the full range of regulatory, transactional and litigation matters. On the non-contentious side, Toronto-based insurance and reinsurance head Hartley Lefton acts for insurers, reinsurers and Insurtech clients on commercial and compliance issues; he recently advised a consortium on the acquisition of a majority interest in ICPEI Holdings and the take-private transaction of a public company. Other key contacts on the corporate side include Montreal-based Sonia Struthers, who has a strong focus on financial services regulation, and rising associate Daanish Pasricha. On the insurance litigation front, Toronto-based Christopher Hubbard is particularly recommended for his experience in professional negligence, product liability and insurance coverage disputes. Former department co-head Nancy Carroll recently retired, while litigator Atrisha Lewis also departed.
