Corvus Insurance, an AI-driven InsurTech company offering Smart Commercial Insurance policies, today announces the opening of its fifth location, an office in Atlanta, Georgia, and the hiring of Joel Fehrman, who will serve as Vice President of Cyber Underwriting based in the new office.

Joel joins Corvus with over ten years of experience in insurance, having focused on underwriting Cyber Insurance and Technology E&O insurance for the previous nine years. Joel most recently worked for Beazley, and previously held roles at XL Group and CNA Financial. At Corvus, Joel will focus on underwriting Smart Cyber Insurance™ for clients across the Southeast.

"Corvus understands and utilizes the advantages that technology can bring to brokers, insureds, and underwriters,” Joel says, “and I'm excited to join at a time when technology is converging with a traditionally slow-to-change business model."

The announcement comes one month after Corvus established its Dallas office, and three months after launching an LA office. The company now has locations in New York City, Los Angeles, Dallas and Atlanta, in addition to its headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts.

“We are thrilled to have someone as expert in cyber underwriting as Joel Fehrman on board,” says Phil Edmundson, CEO and Founder of Corvus Insurance. “And with the Atlanta office, Corvus will be able to meet the growing demand for our Smart Commercial Insurance™ policies in the Atlanta area, Florida and other key southeast markets.”
