The nascent insurance team at DLA Piper Luxembourg, which was formed following the arrival of the 'calm and pragmatic' David De Cubber in February 2023 from now defunct boutique firm LexField, has quickly gained traction in the market among insurers, distributors, reinsurance, assets managers and banks, which are appreciative of the team's ability to leverage complementary practice groups (finance and corporate) and the firm's international network. De Cubber, who has also previously served as head of legal at a leading insurance company, heads the team and stands out for 'his exceptional strategic insight and ability to simplify complex legal challenges into actionable steps'.
