John Bonnie leads the firm's Insurance Coverage Practice Group. This national practice is devoted exclusively to complex commercial disputes, arbitration and litigation, particularly matters addressing obligations arising out of insurance contracts, written agreements to indemnify and other means of shifting and allocating risk.

John's practice runs the gamut of insurance coverage obligations implicated by first-party insurance claims and third-party liability claims, including claims advice and counseling, representation of carriers in coverage arbitration and litigation, and defense of claims alleging insurer bad faith and extra-contractual liability. His experience includes complex commercial and insurance arbitration matters, multi-party insurance litigation, London and Bermuda market policies and disputes, and national coordinating counsel roles for insurers involved in large dollar risk litigation matters.
