Open and honest with others, we show respect and empathy however challenging the situation – demonstrated by our multi-award winning claims team.  Doing the right thing makes for a fair-minded, rewarding environment and makes work and life better for all.

Examples or Scenarios

Claim for extensive soil contamination was made against the insured by the project's owner. After remediation was completed, Beazley worked to indemnify the insured for remediation costs incurred and began working with the insured and its other insurers to prosecute recovery actions against the subcontractor responsible for the incident.  

Our insured obtained an ECLIPSE® policy prior to commencing redevelopment of a parcel of land. During excavation, the insured encountered lead and petroleum contaminated soil and building materials suspected to be from previous operations and historic fill. Beazley worked with the insured to investigate and remediate the contamination, achieving regulatory closure within approximately eight months.
