Attorney Information
Overview
Paul T. Sullivan is the Managing Partner of the Boston office of The Chartwell Law Offices, LLP. Paul handles a variety of complex litigation matters with an emphasis in insurance coverage. While with another firm, he represented a major property insurer in the multi-billion dollar coverage and subrogation litigation related to the destruction of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Paul was involved from start to finish, nearly 100 hearing days, in the appraisal of the property and time element losses associated with the destruction of the World Trade Center. Given the high stakes, the appraisal process dealt with nearly every conceivable construction and property insurance coverage issue. For a description of the World Trade Center appraisal process, See "Appraising the 9/11 Damages to the World Trade Center," Dispute Resolution Journal, August/October 2007 issue.
Upon settlement of the World Trade Center insurance coverage litigation, Paul became involved in the negotiation of damages issues in the multi-billion subrogation action related to the losses sustained on September 11, 2001. The litigation recently settled for $1.2 billion, reportedly the largest subrogation recovery ever obtained. Based on these experiences, Paul has developed considerable expertise in the analysis and presentation of complex damages issues.
In addition to his first party coverage experience, Paul has also successfully represented insurers in third party coverage litigation, including environmental and contractor claims, and extra-contractual claims, including defense of allegations of bad faith.
Paul also has significant experience in antitrust and class action cases and has represented clients in a number of antitrust recovery actions.
Prior to entering private practice, Paul served for five years as an assistant prosecuting attorney. In that position, he was responsible for the prosecution of serious felonies, including homicides, and tried over 20 cases to juries.
Paul started his legal career at a litigation firm that specialized in defense work, including general and products liability.
