Our team of litigators is appointed by commercial general liability insurers, real and personal property insurers, errors and omissions (E&O) insurers, directors and officers (D&O) insurers, hull and machinery (H&M) insurers, protection and indemnity (P&I) insurers, and professional liability and malpractice insurers to defend businesses, business directors and officers, property owners, vessel owners and managers, product manufacturers, contractors, and professionals in complex and often high-stakes tort claims.
We are experienced in claims involving general negligence, product defects, premises liability, motor vehicle negligence, construction defects, maritime torts and Jones Act violations, malpractice claims, employment torts, business torts, and personal injury claims. Our attorneys also advise insureds and insurers on coverage issues, assessment of liability, damages exposure, and settlement claims valuation.
Insurance and Tort Litigation
Mooney Wieland Warren PLLC’s trial lawyers represent clients in a wide variety of civil tort litigation in state and federal courts, as well as before state and federal administrative agencies. We take a pragmatic approach to litigation with the goal of resolving the dispute efficiently and cost-effectively, employing focused discovery tactics using the latest technology, effective dispositive motion practice, alternative dispute resolution, and zealous trial advocacy.
We represent both insureds and insurers in third-party claims, as well as in subrogation claims. Additionally, we prepare insurance coverage opinions and litigate declaratory judgment actions to resolve coverage disputes, and represent insurers in bad faith, unfair claims settlement practice, and consumer protection claims.
Comprehensive Insurance Regulatory Guidance in American Samoa
In addition to our litigation practice, we also regularly advise insurance carriers and producers in licensing and regulatory matters in the U.S. Territory of American Samoa. We are well versed in prosecuting applications to the American Samoa Insurance Commission for certificates of authority to offer insurance in the Territory, as well as applications to expand existing COAs to include new lines.
Comprehensive Claims Investigation and Litigation Support
Mooney Wieland Warren PLLC offers a robust suite of services in claims investigation, providing support to insurers in gathering the necessary evidence and information to evaluate claims accurately. Our legal team works closely with investigators, experts, and consultants to assess the merits of claims, ensuring that every aspect of the case is thoroughly analyzed. Whether in pre-litigation negotiations or full-scale trials, our focus is on minimizing exposure and maximizing favorable outcomes for clients.
Complex Product Liability Defense
In addition to defending clients in general liability cases, we have a deep understanding of the intricacies involved in product liability litigation. Whether the claim involves a manufacturing defect, design flaw, or marketing failure, our attorneys have the expertise to represent manufacturers, suppliers, and retailers in defending against claims that allege harm caused by defective products. We assist clients in navigating compliance with federal and state product safety regulations, and help mitigate the risk of large-scale recalls and class actions.
Strategic Settlement Negotiation and Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
In addition to representing clients in court, Mooney Wieland Warren PLLC excels in settlement negotiation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) strategies, including mediation and arbitration. We understand that many tort claims are better resolved outside the courtroom to avoid lengthy trials and excessive legal fees.
Our attorneys have experience in crafting creative and mutually beneficial settlement solutions that meet the needs of all parties involved, allowing clients to achieve favorable outcomes without the uncertainty of trial.
