About CNA Staff Counsel
CNA is the service mark used by subsidiaries of CNA Financial Corporation, an insurance group headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. The registry entry appears to refer to the in-house staff counsel attorneys in New York rather than to a standalone law firm. Those attorneys are employed by Continental Casualty Company, one of the underwriting companies authorized to use the CNA name, and they work alongside CNA claims professionals to give counsel and resolve policyholder claims.
The staff counsel pages list general liability and workers' compensation as areas of practice. Litigated matters move from pre-trial fact gathering and document exchange through motions toward settlement or closure, and the attorneys also respond to government regulatory agencies when required. The staff counsel program lists New York locations in Melville and Tarrytown, and the Tarrytown office is at 120 White Plains Road.
