Rachel has litigated hundreds of insurance coverage and bad faith claims in state and federal courts across the country and U.S. territories brought under a spectrum of insurance policies issued to individuals, public and private corporations, and government entities. Rachel’s success comes from cases ranging from the ordinary, such as storm-damaged properties, phishing-related data breaches, and wrongful employment termination, to the extraordinary, such as grand jury investigations, parasailing-related injuries, fraternity party injuries, blockades at the Indian-Nepali border, mass livestock deaths, exploding e-cigarettes, art provenance investigations, and free-fall drops at county fairs. Most recently, she has advised clients in a variety of industries on COVID-19 losses under first-party property and business interruption policies. No matter what the issue, Rachel helps her clients maximize their available insurance recovery.
