DWF, the global provider of integrated legal and business services, has announced the appointment of London-based Partner, Claire Bowler, as Head of Major Injury and Casualty in its Insurance Services division.

Claire Bowler has been a partner at DWF for 16 years and was one of two founding partners of DWF's London office in 2008, along with Graham Dickinson.  She has built a strong reputation in the insurance industry over the last 25 years with her innovative approach to solutions for clients and her expertise in large loss and international cases. Claire has held a number of leadership positions at DWF and manages several of the group's key client relationships.

Claire's appointment follows a period of growth for DWF's insurance division and a series of key panel appointments and reappointments. In the last financial year, DWF promoted 9 colleagues to partner within its Insurance Services division and hired 11 new partners covering a wide range of skills and disciplines. The firm has been reappointed to a number of insurer panels in the last 2 years, including Allianz, Aviva, RSA and QBE, amongst many others.

CEO of the Insurance Services division at DWF, Matthew Doughty, added, "Congratulations to Claire on her appointment. Our insurance division continues to go from strength to strength, delivering market-leading expertise across the entire lifecycle of insurance claims to some of the biggest names in the industry.
