Risk Management Consultants

Strategic Planning and Risk Management


Every business engages in activity that exposes it to some risk of liability. That risk may be from employees, property, products or even from directors or officers. There are risks of fraud, failure of technology and more. In today's economic environment, businesses cannot afford to ignore those risks. The risk management consultants at the VanDerLaan Law Group assist Connecticut businesses with risk management and strategic planning in order to minimize risk and ultimately lower the cost of doing business.

The VanDerLaan Law Group's years of experience in Connecticut's courtrooms, boardrooms and file rooms give its risk management consultants a unique ability to identify areas of corporate risk. The firm's extensive history of insurance practice allows us to review insurance coverage to determine if a client is sufficiently protected.

The risk management and strategic planning practice at the VanDerLaan Law Group begins with a thorough evaluation of your business operations and practices. We get to know our clients, what they do and how their businesses run. We analyze any previous liability issues and identify the root of the problem.

Because the VanDerLaan Law Group has a vast history in successfully handling these problems in litigation, the firm has enormous insight into the practical challenges of running a business. We know what happens when these issues end up in court, so we're in a unique position to counsel our clients on how to reasonably avoid the problem in the future.

After the areas of risk and challenge are identified, our risk management consultants can begin examining how to best eliminate or minimize those risks. This may be through changes in practice and procedure or through changes in response to occurrences. We then work with the client to make a critical analysis of how to best address the inevitable risks within the framework of its business structure.

Appropriate insurance coverage is obtained, rewritten or renegotiated. Corporate governance is reviewed for necessary revisions. Protocol and practices are revamped in order to minimize costs and maximize efficiencies.

At the VanDerLaan Law Group, we've seen the worst case scenario in the courtroom. Let us use that knowledge to help you reduce your business risks and avoid costly litigation.

Contact the risk management consultants at the VanDerLaan Law Group today. We look forward to meeting and working with you.

With offices in Hartford and Southbury, we are prepared to handle matters throughout the State. If you can't come to us, we will come to you.
