CMS appoints reinsurance partner
Law firm CMS has appointed a new reinsurance partner in London. Simon Kilgour joins from RPC where he is a partner and head of reinsurance.
Kilgour advises domestic and overseas insurers and reinsurers on a number of legal matters, including complex, high value and non-standard coverage disputes. He has led numerous disputes and arbitrations, some with values in excess of $100 million in London, the US and Bermuda.
“Simon’s innovative work for domestic and overseas insurers and reinsurers on complex, high value disputes and market issues complements our already strong market offering,” said Ed Foss, partner and head of the insurance and reinsurance group.
“Worldwide, the industry faces a challenging environment characterized by increasingly global competition, regulatory oversight and a rising cost of capital. Now, with CMS’s broad service offering to insurers and reinsurers across disputes and arbitration, transactional, corporate advisory and other key areas, Simon’s experience will be a tremendous asset for this practice and its clients.”
Kilgour added: “The strong European footprint and international reach of CMS combined with their depth of sector expertise provides a natural fit with which to continue my career.”
