E S Lawless Ltd | Expert Insurance, Maritime & Dispute Resolution Services

E S Lawless Ltd operates as a boutique, owner‑operated law firm led by Eoin Lawless. The practice markets itself as Insurance, Maritime and Dispute Resolution specialists, delivering tailored, practical guidance to small businesses and individuals. With the premise that a one‑person practice can move quickly and be closer to clients, the firm provides direct access to the decision maker, enabling efficient policy interpretation, defence of claims, pursuit of recoveries, and handling of non‑insurance issues. It emphasises a pragmatic, business‑minded approach and avoids a one‑size‑fits‑all template, offering services aligned to each client’s unique situation and needs. The firm covers claims work, disputes and advisory services with an emphasis on timely, cost‑effective outcomes, leveraging the founder’s hands‑on experience and directly responsive service. E S Lawless Ltd leverages over thirty years in the insurance field, including seven years as a lawyer and five as a Loss Adjuster, with advanced qualifications (LLM(Hons) and PG Dip Bus Admin). Eoin Lawless has broad insurance exposure across Property, Casualty, Marine and Financial Lines and specialises in Marine Insurance and related transport and international trade matters. He completed the Marine branch associateship with the Insurance Institute of New Zealand, has presented seminars on marine insurance, served on the Insurance Council of New Zealand’s Marine Committee, and studied Maritime Law and International Trade Law at the University of Auckland. His practice includes construction liability and professional indemnity claims, public and products liability, Directors and Officers liability, contract work and broader dispute resolution, with a focus on negotiating settlements, mediations and efficient resolution in court if required.
