Global law firm Norton Rose Fulbright is expanding its Band1/Tier1 corporate insurance team with the appointment of Adriana Cotter as a partner in London.

Adriana, who joins the firm from Eversheds Sutherland, focuses on regulatory, commercial, and transactional work for UK and international (re)insurers and intermediaries across the insurance market. 

She has strong experience advising on regulatory matters and a range of other complex non-contentious matters, including legacy solutions, group reorganizations, insurance distribution agreements, (re)insurance policies and collateral arrangements.

Adriana will work closely with Norton Rose Fulbright’s leading global corporate insurance team - including London-based partners James Bateson, Maria Ross, Nicholas Berry and Matthew Foster - to help meet strong demand in the practice.

James Bateson, Global Head of Financial Institutions at Norton Rose Fulbright, said:

“We are delighted to welcome Adriana to Norton Rose Fulbright. Her impressive skillset and experience complements our top tier corporate insurance practice. She is a great fit for our team and her expertise, especially in the regulatory and run-off spheres, will ensure we can continue to meet strong demand from our clients for corporate, regulatory and transactional advice across the insurance and reinsurance sectors.”

“I am delighted to be joining Norton Rose Fulbright’s global corporate insurance team, which has long been recognised as one of the best in the market. I was particularly attracted by the firm’s international reach and the breadth of its legal offering, which enables it to provide a full service to insurance clients and those looking to invest in the sector across the globe.”
