Direct claim against liability insurer under Danish law and Norwegian law

Under Danish law and Norwegian law, a party suffering damage or loss in some cases has a right to a direct compensation claim against the insurer of the party who is liable for the damage or loss.

We provide an overview of the main rules on such direct claims under the Danish Insurance Contracts Act of 1930, as amended, (the “DICA”) and the Norwegian Insurance Contacts Act of 1989, as amended, (the “NICA”).

We hope that the overview will be useful for companies and persons working with such direct claims and related matters in practice. You are welcome to contact us if you would like to discuss direct claims or related matters. We will be happy to provide advice and assistance to you if needed.
