Insurance and Takaful

  • Introduction
  • Focus Area
  • Team

JHJ has a strong insurance practice, supported by its longstanding relationship with a number of prominent general insurers and takaful insurers. The firm’s insurance lawyers are recognised for their ability to combine consistently rigorous analysis with astute judgment, giving clients a competitive edge.

For contentious matters, we specialise in these key areas: professional indemnity, medical negligence, product liability and reinsurance. On the non-contentious side, the firm’s practice includes advice on product development, regulatory aspects, tax, compliance, the insurance code of practice, claims procedures and protocols, alternative risk structures and captives and the acquisition or sale of insurance entities both locally and internationally. Our approach is result oriented and focuses on the decisive elements of a coverage dispute.

Professional Liability

We utilize lawyers from different practice areas within the firm in handling matters for clients involving professional malpractice law issues. Malaysia’s premier Islamic insurers as well as the conventional insurance establishments employ us as their primary legal representative in Malaysia. We are also frequently selected as defense counsel by professionals and their liability insurance carriers in legal malpractice and other professional negligence litigation.

Insurance Coverage

We are privileged to represent a number of the country’s leading takaful insurers in matters concerning insurance coverage. On a daily basis, we provide coverage advice, draft coverage opinions, and assist with reservation-of-rights letters. We frequently represent our insurer clients in declaratory judgment matters and assist clients in addressing coverage issues ranging from uninsured motorist claims, product liability subrogation to wrongful death. We also have unique experience in assisting insurers in drafting policy language.

Our clientele includes all leading takaful insurers in the country, and are often time appointed to represented clients on complex multi-million Ringgit insurance matters that were either litigated in courts or negotiated and resolved via arbitration.

Product Development

JHJ has played a significant role in the product development of our insurer clients. Our insurance team is instrumental in drafting, underwriting and vetting certain policies for prominent takaful insurers to ensure that they are in conformity and is coherent with the Malaysian insurance practices. Our team has been involved in the nationwide launch of many state-of-the-art insurance service products. We played a significant role in the negotiations and documentation between our client and an Indian based IT firm for the introduction of a web based Interactive Insurance System which is currently in use today. We were also involved in an insurance firm’s exercise of improving their client documenting system via a Systems Integration Services Agreement with an American software firm.

In recent times, our team was engaged to handle the collaboration between a takaful insurer and a German based international reinsurer in developing, managing, administering and distributing a Shari’ah based unit-linked savings plan. We advised and negotiated the Terms of Reference between the two parties and drafted the Memorandum of Understandings, distribution and cooperation agreement and all other ancillary documentation.
