Heinz Joins Lockton from Aon as Partner in Transaction Liability Practice

January 25, 2021

Kansas City, Mo.-based Lockton has added Matt Heinz as a partner in its Transaction Liability practice.

Heinz will co-lead the group with partners Josh Halpern, Eric Ziff and Gaurav Sud, who joined Lockton last year as the firm sought to significantly bolster its transaction liability capabilities.

Heinz most recently served as a senior managing director and co-practice leader of Aon’s North American transaction liability team, where he previously partnered with Halpern, Ziff and Sud in building out a practice that facilitated the widescale adoption of insurance products that augment M&A deals. He brings over a decade of transaction liability insurance experience, serving as both an underwriter and broker during his time in the industry. Prior to his career in insurance, Heinz was a corporate attorney at Proskauer Rose.

Heinz is a frequent speaker at M&A and private equity events, commenting on trends in the transaction liability insurance market, as well as M&A processes and negotiation more broadly. He has a B.A. from William and Mary and a law degree from St. John’s School of Law.
