Technology

New technology is disrupting existing business models and creating new ones. It is impacting the scope of exposure faced by insureds and creating opportunities to develop new products and business lines. Increasingly, companies are reliant on technology as a means to do day to day business.

CMS has one of the UK’s leading technology practices. Our specialist insurance team draws on expertise from across practice areas to advise insurers on claims against technology professionals as well as the numerous types of claims that can arise out of a failure in technology.

We have considerable experience of dealing with large, complex cases as well as the smaller day-to-day claims in this sector. We work closely with our network of international offices to obtain local support for claims with an international involvement.

Whether required to defend a technology professional or advise insurers on coverage in respect of first or third party claims by or against an insured arising out of a technology failure we have the experience and cross-sector expertise to guide you to a timely, legally sound and commercially sensitive resolution.

Dispute resolution: We help our clients avoid litigation and provide expert advice to resolve disputes where possible. Our advice is clear, commercial and conscious of reputational risk. We will vigorously defend unmeritorious claims.

Full Service: As a full-service firm, we work closely with colleagues in areas such as tax and insolvency to provide comprehensive advice focused on achieving the best outcome.
