Insurance Defense & Coverage Services

Since the start of our firm in 1986, representing local physicians and hospitals has been a mainstay of our practice. Throughout these many years, Feldman, Kleidman & Coffey, LLP, has cultivated successful relationships with insurance companies, their insureds, and self-insured businesses.

We have assumed the defense for the insured under policies covering a wide array of risks such as property damage, medical/dental malpractice, product liability, and coverage disputes. Our long history of experience in this area results in superior and efficient management of each case referred to us by an insurance company.

Our firm also handles insurance coverage issues, which includes advising the insurance carrier of its potential risks under the circumstances, engaging in settlement negotiations and defending declaratory judgment actions brought by the insured or by others.

Professional Liability Defense

In addition to defending against malpractice claims in state and federal court, our attorneys also represent professionals in disciplinary and licensing proceedings before administrative agencies and licensing boards throughout New York State. Our team at Feldman, Kleidman & Coffey, LLP will discuss the particulars of your case, and will work with you to decide and chart a strategy for the best possible resolution to your case. In the past our lawyers have represented a wide array of professionals (including doctors, dentists, podiatrists and nurses) in licensing and disciplinary matters before agencies, including the Office of Professional Medical Conduct and the Office of Professional Discipline.
