Law firm Cooley has announced the expansion of its global insurance and Insurtech leadership, with the election of Heidi Lawson to the partnership.
Lawson arrived at Cooley in April of this year with special counsel Greg Hoffnagle. Based in Boston, U.S., Lawson is an internationally recognised insurance lawyer who believes in partnering with clients to find strategic solutions.
She was formerly a leading insurance partner and co-chair of the insurance, reinsurance, investigations, and risk management practice at Mintz Levin.
Mark Everiss, London-based Cooley partner and head of the firm’s insurance and reinsurance group, said: “Welcoming Heidi to the partnership makes perfect sense for the firm and our practice. During her time here at Cooley, she has made a real impact within our practice and has shown her ability to connect with Cooley’s client base.”
Lawson, added: “I’m thrilled to join this wonderful partnership. This is truly a case of hitting the ground running, and I look forward to contributing to further global growth in this exciting and disrupting field.”
