WASHINGTON— John Buchanan has been awarded the prestigious Thomas F. Segalla Service Award by the American College of Coverage Counsel, a recognition of his dedication and service to the College. The ACCC is the preeminent association of attorneys who represent the interests of insurers and policyholders in disputes arising out of insurance policies.
The ACCC, established in 2012, is an invitation-only organization of senior lawyers who have devoted most of their practice to insurance disputes for 15 years or more. The ACCC’s Fellows include many of the most prominent members of the insurance-law bars of the United States, Bermuda, and Canada, as well as Honorary Fellows from academia and the judiciary.
Senior Counsel in Covington’s Washington office, John has represented policyholders in insurance coverage advocacy, dispute resolution and counseling for over four decades. His practice has ranged from early DES and asbestos coverage litigation, to major railroad derailments, to some of the largest cyber losses in history. He continues to explore cutting-edge insurance issues and to pursue insurance claims for emerging technology risks, including AI, the “Internet of Things,” the “Metaverse,” and autonomous vehicles.
In addition to John, Covington lawyers Suzan Charlton, Anna Engh, Wendy Feng, Marialuisa Gallozzi, David Goodwin, Christine Haskett, Gretchen Hoff Varner, Ben Lenhart, David Luttinger, Darren Teshima, and Seth Tucker are Fellows of the ACCC.
