In a strategic move that underscores its commitment to bolstering its transactional risk practice, Akerman LLP has welcomed Adria Crowe and Christine Kim as partners. The firm made the announcement Wednesday, a decision poised to fortify its capabilities in risk management across major financial transactions.
Adria Crowe joins the firm with a track record in representing insurance carriers throughout the underwriting process. Her expertise spans due diligence and policy negotiations, with a focus on advising clients on mergers and acquisitions, real estate, and secondary transactions. As Akerman continues to emphasize its role in transactional risk advisory, Crowe’s addition is expected to enhance the firm’s offerings in these critical areas.
Christine Kim, whose practice is centered on transactional liability insurance coverage and claims matters, further enriches Akerman’s team with her proficiency in representing both domestic and international insurers. Her background encompasses specialized areas such as representations and warranties, warranty and indemnity, contingent risk, political risk, and trade credit matters.
This recruitment comes as part of Akerman’s broader efforts to expand its influence and expertise in transactional risk, a sector increasingly pivotal in global mergers and acquisitions. The firm anticipates that Crowe and Kim’s varied experiences and insights will provide invaluable resources for its clientele navigating complex financial landscapes.
