Joshua Gold is a shareholder in Anderson Kill's New York office and serves as chair of the Cyber Insurance Recovery Group and co-chair of the Marine Cargo Insurance Group. He has represented numerous corporate and non-profit policyholders in various industries, with recoveries for his clients well in excess of $1.5 billion.

Josh's practice involves matters ranging from international arbitration, data security, directors and officers insurance, business income/property insurance, commercial crime insurance, admiralty, cargo, and marine insurance disputes. He has been lead trial counsel in multi-party bench and jury trials, and has negotiated and crafted scores of settlement agreements including coverage-in-place agreements.

Josh won a multi-million-dollar recovery in a landmark U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit decision, on behalf of a retailer that suffered a data breach as a result of a computer hacking scheme. In finding coverage for the retailer's losses stemming from the breach, the Sixth Circuit rejected the insurance company's "direct loss" defense, instead applying a proximate cause standard. Because the "direct loss" defense is commonly cited in such cases, the decision is of particular importance to businesses purchasing fidelity, crime and financial institution bond coverage.

Josh is ranked by Chambers USA in Insurance Dispute Resolution: Policyholders in New York and recommend by The Legal 500 United States for Insurance - Advice to Policyholders.
