Insurance and Litigation
Trihydro leverages its senior technical resources and corporate expertise to provide pre-policy and claims review services for the leading environmental insurance underwriters. By providing timely, concise and accurate analysis, Trihydro assists its customers in identifying and quantifying their potential risks for pollution legal liability and remediation cost-cap insurance policies.

Trihydro provides experienced, senior technical staff who not only understand the technical issues, but also the business issues, in order to develop reasonable approaches for policy language and endorsements. Trihydro's insurance support staff includes a former environmental insurance underwriter, and former senior industry remediation managers who have developed and managed liability reserve accruals and updates. This practical experience provides the industry insight to look beyond just the site-specific assessment and remediation data.

We have performed site audits, telephone surveys, and document review for policies related to multi-million dollar mergers and acquisitions at facilities located in the United States and internationally. Because Trihydro has successfully developed and managed remedial programs for numerous industrial, commercial and government clients, we understand how to evaluate proposed cost-cap programs. We identify where the contingencies should be placed, where cost-overruns are likely to occur, and the potential effect of regulatory approvals and project timing on the overall project cash flow.

Because Trihydro understands the policy development and language, we are able to provide added value in the management of claims. From reviewing policy endorsements, to evaluating proposed remedial plans and the “reasonableness” of costs, Trihydro assists the insurance claims team in understanding the viability of a claim, and also how to contain necessary expenditures to those that are appropriate and necessary.
