Todd J. Leon

Shareholder

Todd focuses his practice on complex insurance coverage litigation and contractual disputes. He has extensive experience litigating a wide variety of claims at the trial and appellate levels of both the state and federal courts. Admitted to practice in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, he splits his time between our Philadelphia and Mount Laurel offices.

Todd is particularly experienced in managing cases that involve sophisticated "risk shifting" issues, including both additional insurance coverage and contractual indemnification. He has worked on a wide array of insurance coverage matters, spanning a broad base of first- and third-party claims and policy types. Todd has counseled insurers, third-party administrators and self-insureds throughout the life cycle of a matter, from the drafting of policy language to pre-suit investigation to the drafting of coverage opinions to litigating matters through the trial and appellate courts. 

Todd lives with his wife, two children and pug in Bucks County, PA. In his spare time, he is an avid fan of Philadelphia's professional sports teams and Rutgers basketball and football, and he plays in a modified fast-pitch, wood bat softball league. He is also a member of the Board of Directors of Shir Ami, the largest reform synagogue in Bucks County, where he serves as Secretary of the Board of Directors and the Chairperson of the Philanthropy Committee.
