International law firm DAC Beachcroft has announced the appointment of Alex Stovold as Aviation partner in its Global Insurance practice in London.
Stovold will take up his position in July, arriving from Clyde & Co, where he also specialised in aviation work for insurers and reinsurers.
His work has included a focus on general aviation, as well as subrogation recoveries, product liability and coverage advice.

“This appointment is another significant step in the continued growth of our market-leading global insurance offering to meet the needs of our clients,” said Liam O’Connell, Head of DAC Beachcroft’s Global Insurance practice in London.
“Alex brings with him extensive experience of handling high-profile and complex losses and litigation in Europe, Africa, Asia and Central and South America. His experience and leading reputation will enhance our Aviation capabilities and enable us to continue building an offering that is a substantive competitor in the industry.”
