We understand the separate roles of coverage counsel and insurance defense counsel, and take care to fulfill the duties of the role for which we are retained. We understand how important it is for the insurance company to receive early, accurate analysis of a claim’s legal strengths and weaknesses.

As a result, we work hard to gather all relevant facts as quickly and efficiently as possible, and press for full and accurate responses to discovery requests from the claimant. We actively pursue every legitimate opportunity to resolve claims, consistent with our duties to our clients and the legal process. We are versed in all forms of dispute resolution and are seasoned both in the art of litigation and negotiation.
