Insurance

Defending third party lawsuits for insurance carriers has been, and remains, a cornerstone of our practice. In fact, many of our attorneys began their careers as claim professionals and insurance carrier staff counsel. For this reason, working in conjunction with the insurance carrier and providing defense for the insured is first-hand and experienced-based.

Many of our insurance clients have come to us frustrated that their previous coverage attorneys could never make a decision; they just couldn't commit. Claims often remained open for long periods and billing hours mounted. We know what a difficult situation this can be for the insurance carrier so we provide a coverage opinion that outlines all of the options - always recommending the option that we think is best. Whether the carrier is simply seeking an opinion or wants us to prosecute or defend a Declaratory Judgment lawsuit, our recommendations are clear, so in turn, the carrier can make the most informed decision possible.

With more than a quarter of a century defending virtually all third party personal injury lawsuits including, motor vehicle accidents, premises accidents, construction accidents and product liability cases, our commitment and understanding of the insurance industry allows us to best represent the carrier.
