The English courts have never been busier with insurance cases but what impact do these decisions have beyond the insurance arena on English jurisprudence more generally? From recent decisions involving stranded aircraft in Russia, to the global pandemic, to seizures of warehouses in Afghanistan and much more besides, insurance disputes have always covered a broad array of subject matters. This session will look at how insurance disputes in the English courts, both recent and historic, have shaped both English law and the management of cases in the English courts.
Hosted by Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer and 7KBW.
