Matthias Kuznik (pictured) has joined Keoghs as a partner in London, further expanding the firm’s London Market services.

With almost 15 years of experience as an insurance lawyer in the City of London, Kuznik brings extensive expertise in coverage and defence work to Keoghs. His specialisations include financial institutions (FI), directors and officers (D&O), warranty and indemnity, and cyber and professional indemnity insurance.

Kuznik’s experience extends to handling international cases involving multiple jurisdictions and parties, offering advice post-notification, and engaging in dispute resolution in both English- and German-speaking regions.

Joining a now five-member team led by Andrew Schütte, Kuznik will enhance Keoghs’ ability to support clients on complex coverage matters, Lloyd’s and company market issues, reinsurance/delegated authority contracts and disputes, and policy wordings.

Schütte, head of reinsurance at Keoghs, commented: “We are delighted to welcome Matthias Kuznik to our team as partner. His extensive experience and his deep understanding of the many issues to affect the FI/D&O market in recent years will be invaluable to our clients.”

A solicitor of England and Wales who is also admitted in the Republic of Ireland, Kuznik had this to say: “I am excited to join Keoghs, which has an excellent and growing reputation within the London Market for the fantastic level of service it delivers to clients.

“I am very much looking forward to working with some of the top insurance and reinsurance lawyers in the City.”

Earlier this year, Keoghs’ parent Davies swooped for commercial and maritime litigation firm Shoreside Law. The specialist team of international lawyers joined Keoghs, forming part of Davies’ complex and specialty business unit.
