Beazley has expanded its global specialty lines claims team with the announcement of four new members in the company's newly opened New York office.
The four new employees are: Peter Liaskos, Melissa LaRocca, Beth Diamond and Steven Chang.
Prior to joining Beazley, Liaskos was a litigation partner in the New York office of Mayer,
Brown, Rowe & Maw. LaRocca and Diamond were senior associates at
Chadbourne & Parke and Chang was a senior associate at Martin, Clearwater & Bell.
Johnny Rowell, head of specialty lines at Beazley, said: “Responsive claims management is central to our value proposition. In the insurance industry, claims and underwriting are too often segregated from one another. We believe the two disciplines are complementary and that our underwriters and claims managers should work closely together.
“We also believe that our claims professionals should operate as a single team across national boundaries, sharing consistent practices while remaining easily accessible to counsel, brokers and insureds. The addition of these four talented and experienced professionals in New York furthers all these objectives.”
