Advokatfirmaet Simonsen Vogt Wiig demonstrates activity on both contentious and non-contentious insurance mandates, with particular strength in work in marine insurance. Co-head Anette Fjeld takes point on the non-marine insurance mandates that the practice receives, acting on property and professional liability insurance. Co-head Øyvind Grøneng chiefly focuses on the shipping and offshore side of mandates, acting for owners, yards, and insurers. Kristoffer Larsen Rognvik is recommended for his work for yards, ship owners, and marine insurance companies on shipping and marine insurance disputes.
