A big-picture attorney who’s always focused on the client’s end goal, Anne represents clients in complex commercial and fiduciary disputes.
Anne’s practice focuses on complex business disputes, most often in the areas of insurance coverage and construction litigation. Her experience includes representation of both insurance carriers and policyholders in layering and allocation coverage issues under multiple insurance policies, bad faith claims, and environmental disputes. She thrives on the complexity of these cases within the sharp bounds of policies. As a construction attorney, Anne has successfully represented clients in both state and federal courts, as well as in arbitration and mediation, on cases involving breach of contract allegations.
