Linklaters advises Solvd Group on strategic partnership with HDI Insurance

Linklaters advises Solvd Group on a strategic partnership with HDI Insurance. Solvd is one of the world's leading providers of digital solutions for claims and repair management.

As part of the partnership, Solvd Group and its subsidiaries will take over central services such as workshop management and document verification for HDI Versicherung.

For Solvd, the partnership is an important step towards further expanding its end-to-end claims and repair management, thereby enabling the company to organise the entire process related to a claim and its repair comprehensively and seamlessly from a single source – from the initial claim notification, through communication with insurers and repair shops, the coordination of assessors, to the successful repair and final documentation.

The Linklaters team is led by Dr. Thomas Broichhausen (Partner, Corporate/M&A, Munich) and Ludwig Stimpel (Associate, Corporate/M&A, Munich). Other team members include Dr. René Döring (Partner, Employment, Frankfurt), Dr. Michael Leicht (Partner, TMT, Frankfurt), Christoph Barth (Partner, AFIG, Düsseldorf), Atif Wolfgang Bhatti (Counsel, IP/LAI, Frankfurt), Dr. Alexander Zitzl (Managing Associate, Tax, München), Ann-Christin Käser (Managing Associate, AFIG, München), Jonas Baumann (Associate, TMT, Frankfurt), Felix Wichert (Associate, TMT, Frankfurt), Colin Laws (Associate, Employment, Frankfurt), Sinan Günebakan (Associate, AFIG, Düsseldorf), Jenny Döllmann (Associate, IP, Frankfurt), Iuliia Matveieva (Foreign Associate, Corporate/M&A, München) as well as Dr. Maximilian Huchel (Associate, Corporate/ M&A, München).

The Linklaters team led by Thomas Broichhausen regularly advises on transactions in the insurance sector and most recently advised Allianz Direct on the acquisition of FRIDAY's insurance portfolio in Germany and France and on the acquisition of iptiQ's European property and casualty insurance business.
