In April 2016, KIAP became a full member of The Harmonie Group. The Group’s members are independent law firms that are invitation-only, prequalified and vetted.
The Harmonie Group is a not-for-profit membership organization of independent law firms dedicated to serving the special needs of the risk industry. Founded in 1993 at the Harmonie Club in New York City, the Harmonie Group became a national network of carefully vetted law firms that provide defense services to corporations, insurance carriers, captive insurance companies, risk retention groups, purchasing groups and third-party administrators. The network includes lawyers and law firms around the world.
Firms provide litigation, conflict and dispute resolution and skilled mediation and arbitration defense services. Their international expertise coupled with local experience with, and knowledge of, plaintiffs’ lawyers, the judiciary, legal rules, procedures and precedents, are keenly needed in today’s environment to cope with complex high-stakes litigation. With over 5,000 member firm lawyers, practicing throughout the US, Canada (CLC), Europe, Asia and South America, clients can engage lawyers with the specialised experience they need - defending clients anytime, anywhere.
