Keith M. Andresen has returned to Marshall Dennehey’s New York City office as a shareholder in the Casualty Department, where he joins Peter S. Read to co-chair the firm’s New York Construction & Labor Law Practice Group. Andresen, who was previously a casualty litigation associate at Marshall Dennehey, rejoins the firm after spending four years as a partner at a New York-based insurance defense firm. 

Andresen is highly experienced in the arena of construction liability, personal injury and New York State Labor Law claims. He frequently defends project owners and contractors in construction accident cases involving the New York Labor Law and Industrial Codes, with a focus on defeating liability, transferring risk and reducing damages.

“We're delighted to welcome Keith back to the firm in this leadership role," said Matthew S. Schorr, Director of the firm's Casualty Department. "Keith and Peter have a strong history of collaboration, having successfully managed numerous labor law and casualty cases together. They are an exceptional team." 

With a career-long focus on insurance defense litigation, Andresen additionally devotes his practice to premises liability, automobile liability, property litigation and construction defect claims. 

Andresen graduated, with honors, from Long Island University in 2003 and earned his juris doctor from City University of New York School of Law in 2006, where he was a member of law review. He is a member of the New York State Bar Association and is admitted to practice in New York, and its Federal Southern and Eastern Districts.
