CLOSE COLLABORATION
between claims, underwriting & distribution partners
At AXIS, we take a proactive approach to managing claims. Many of our claims specialists have been with us for a decade or more, and they are empowered to provide our association clients with specialized attorneys and expert witnesses to protect the client's reputation and ensure the association can continue to serve its members. Since many of these claims can impact overall association practices, we include a consent to settle clause in these policies, so clients have greater control over settlements.
