Insurance Transactions
Strategic Counsel for Complex Deals in the Insurance Industry
Transactions in the insurance sector require more than just contract drafting. They demand a nuanced understanding of the regulatory environment, market forces, and operational realities driving the deal. At Hinshaw, we help insurers, reinsurers, intermediaries, and investors structure, negotiate, and close transactions that advance business objectives while meeting regulatory requirements.
Our experience spans mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, portfolio transfers, reinsurance agreements, capital raises, and strategic partnerships. Whether the transaction involves a domestic insurer, a cross-border acquisition, or a restructuring in response to evolving market conditions, we deliver the legal insight and industry perspective necessary to protect your interests and position your business for growth.
We represent insurers in both life and property/casualty markets, as well as reinsurers, managing general agents (MGAs), and other insurance market participants. Working side-by-side with your leadership team, we align our legal strategy with your business goals, manage deal risk, and guide you through each step of the process—from due diligence to post-closing integration.
