Tom Bracken

Tom Bracken brings nearly three decades of insurance and reinsurance experience to his work for his clients. Tom advises insurers on claims-related matters across all lines of insurance, including personal and commercial lines, and oversees and handles litigation on behalf of carriers in state and federal jurisdictions across the country.

A courtroom-tested advocate in both trials and appeals, Tom litigates complex insurance cases involving coverage disputes, including bad faith actions, investigations of fraud, declaratory judgment actions, general liability and automobile claims. He also defends high-value lawsuits involving professional liability; commercial, catastrophic personal injury and property losses; general liability; products liability; and labor law. Tom assists clients with all aspects of a loss, from claims evaluation and investigation through litigation, mediation, settlement negotiation and, where warranted, trial and appeal. His extensive claims, coverage and litigation experience also enables him to consult on the drafting of policies and forms for insurers.

Tom believes his successes on behalf of clients are as much the result of his commitment to understanding each client’s goals and business objectives and his conviction that an effective defense in any case requires a collaborative lawyer-client working relationship, as they are due to his mastery of the law over the course of his 30 years of practice.
