Maida Chinosi concentrates her practice on insurance coverage litigation and counseling. She handles a broad array of coverage matters, from large complex litigation to discrete focused disputes involving environmental liability, toxic tort, product liability, directors and officers liability, and construction defects claims. Maida’s practice also includes counseling and representing corporate clients and domestic and international insurers on bad faith exposures, risk management, claims handling, and general business matters.

Maida has extensive experience handling complex civil litigation matters in New Jersey state and federal court. In addition, she has a strong background in counseling clients on a wide range of e-discovery issues, including preservation, collection, protocols, and vendor contracts.

Before joining Hinshaw, Maida furthered her experience practicing at two regional law firms in New Jersey, where she handled both insurance coverage and insurance defense matters. Most recently, Maida practiced at an international law firm in New Jersey, where a significant part of her practice concentrated on defending claims for additional insured coverage.

Prior to becoming an attorney, Maida worked on Wall Street and in the pharmaceutical industry for over seven years. During this time, she gained invaluable experience and knowledge in the sophisticated systems and processes involved in the operation of large corporate organizations. This blend of real-life business and legal proficiency gives Maida a keen perspective her clients appreciate and trust.
