Stuart Hardy, the new president of the Forum of Insurance Lawyers, shares his reflections & predictions on the effect of the pandemic, civil justice reform & Brexit
  • The effects of COVID-19 on the insurance sector.
  • How FOIL plans to work closely with the insurance industry.
  • Predictions for 2022, including the use of the Official Injury Claim portal.

At the start of the year, it’s hard not to reflect upon events over the past two years. Turmoil such as we have seen leaves behind uncertainty, the need for adjustment, and continued challenges. The insurance sector is no different, and we are all left grappling with the practicalities of life, from where we work, how we maintain and strengthen our client relationships, how we mentor, motivate and train staff, and how we conduct litigation.

At the same time the culture of business life is under close scrutiny, particularly regarding issues around climate change and diversity and inclusion, with a pressing need for a new approach. Brexit continues to create political and business uncertainty and we are all facing new business priorities.
