Expertise serving policyholders and professionals

Insurance law is a technical area that requires a careful reading of the contract, the coverages subscribed and the rules applicable to the claim.

Cabinet Bassour & Abaragh advises and defends individuals, professionals and businesses facing a claim, a refusal of compensation or a disagreement over the amount offered by their insurer. Our work seeks to clarify your rights, build a solid case file and engage with the insurance company or its expert.

When amicable settlement does not succeed, we initiate the appropriate proceedings before the competent courts to defend your interests in a calm and professional manner.

Situations we handle

Here are situations in which the firm may act, depending on the circumstances and the nature of the insurance contract.

  • Refusal of compensation or contestation of coverage by the insurance company
  • Disagreement over the amount of compensation offered
  • Motor vehicle claims and road traffic accidents
  • Compensation for personal injury and damages suffered
  • Home insurance claims, water damage, fire, theft
  • Civil liability, professional and ten-year insurance
  • Challenges to expert assessments and requests for counter-assessment
  • Recourses against decisions of the insurer or its expert

This list is indicative and not exhaustive. Every matter is the subject of an individual analysis based on the insurance contract, the claim documents and the applicable regulations.
