We are excited to announce that Rick Da Costa has rejoined the firm in our Toronto office as a key partner in our national Insurance & Reinsurance Group. A globally-minded insurance and reinsurance lawyer using law as a tool to solve business issues, Rick serves as a trusted advisor on a range of insurance and reinsurance related issues, providing practical legal and business solutions to clients.
Rick is designated as a Certified In-House Counsel – Canada by the Canadian Bar Association, the Canadian Corporate Counsel Association, and the Rotman School of Management (University of Toronto). Having spent several years as a senior executive at one of the world’s largest insurance groups, Rick has gained invaluable insight on the complex issues faced by senior leaders and other corporate counsel in the insurance and reinsurance industries, and offers first-hand experience dealing with change management and all that comes with the rapid growth and measured contraction of an insurer’s portfolio.
Prior to moving in-house, Rick summered, articled and was a senior associate in the Insurance & Reinsurance Group here at Cassels.
We are excited to welcome Rick back to our team! Learn more about Rick here.
