ABOUT INSURANCE ARCHAEOLOGY SERVICES

Insurance Archaeology Services (“IAS”) assists our clients by identifying and locating former insurance policies. Accessing these older policies can provide policyholders with coverage (i.e., a defense and indemnity) for claims and/or litigation that may occur today or tomorrow. The client that has full access to it’s entire insurance portfolio will be better protected and properly prepared to address such contingencies.

Our team of experts has over 64 years of combined experience in the field of Insurance Archaeology. IAS has located hundreds of millions of dollars of prepaid insurance assets, enabling our clients to maximize recoveries for toxic tort, environmental claims, and a variety of other long tail liabilities. The recent decades have seen an onslaught of mergers and acquisition activity, this combined with emerging liabilities and heightened environmental enforcement have ensured that insurance archaeology, now more than ever, is a need practice of risk management.

Why Use Insurance Archaeology Services (IAS)?

  • Our job is to identify and locate old (usually pre-1986) liability, property, pollution, and/or excess/umbrella policies on behalf of our clients.

  • Many of our clients are facing immediate or pending exposure to significant environmental claims/lawsuits involving soil and/or ground water contamination.

  • Other clients are facing immediate or pending exposure to asbestos claims, talc claims, sexual assault claims, and other complex insurance claims.

  • IAS believes that a comparatively small dollar outlay for insurance archaeology will usually result in identifying insurance policies providing hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars, of coverage protection (i.e., both defense costs/indemnity) for our clients.

  • Our clients deserve this level of insurance coverage and protection. We can help!
