For more than 25 years, Tom Mielenhausen devoted his practice exclusively to resolving insurance coverage disputes in favor of commercial policyholders throughout the U.S. He helped many types of businesses obtain successful outcomes through negotiation, alternative dispute resolution, and litigation in trial and appellate courts. Mr. Mielenhausen has extensive experience in resolving the often complex coverage issues associated with a variety of insurance policies, including:
-
Directors’ and officers’, errors and omissions, commercial general, environmental, products, contractors, employment, cyber-risk, media, advertising, intellectual property and technology liability;
-
Fidelity and crime loss;
-
Business interruption and property loss;
-
Inland and ocean marine; and
-
Reinsurance.
Clients valued Mr. Mielenhausen's quick grasp of issues and incisive approach to resolving disputes with insurers. His goal was to maximize insurance recovery by assessing both the likely cost involved in the dispute and the probability of prevailing, and then estimating the client’s optimal settlement value at various stages of negotiation and litigation.
