insurance defense is
00:07
an incredibly interesting area of law
00:09
and one that
00:11
i don’t think people necessarily
00:12
appreciate its
00:14
complexities and diversities i say that
00:17
because
00:18
as a threshold the insurance defense
00:20
practice
00:21
for a lawyer you’re a servant to two
00:24
masters
00:25
you have the insurance company who
00:27
insures the insured
00:29
and is oftentimes the entity with whom
00:32
we have relationships
00:34
with direct relationships and you also
00:36
have the client the insured
00:38
someone who’s been sued in a lawsuit
00:41
that
00:42
we are hired to represent so in reality
00:45
we have
00:46
two clients with overlapping
00:49
interests but differing approaches and
00:51
differing concerns
00:53
related to that is insurance defense
00:56
whether it’s general liability or
00:58
professional negligence or the myriad
00:59
other areas
01:01
comes from a variety of businesses and
01:04
and areas so while the law for example
01:07
on-premises liability
01:09
is fairly consistent with vagaries and
01:12
changes
01:13
through appellate opinions and new laws
01:16
you get those questions coming from
01:18
condominium associations
01:20
from construction sites from sports and
01:23
entertainment arenas
01:25
from a variety of places where as a
01:28
insurance defense lawyer we not only
01:29
have to be able to
01:31
apply the law to those differing
01:34
arenas and contacts but we also have to
01:37
become
01:37
quick studies and learn about the
01:40
different areas
01:42
in order to best represent our clients
01:44
and it’s incredibly challenging
01:46
but it’s incredibly rewarding and the
01:49
great thing about our firm is that we
01:51
have the
01:51
experience the capabilities and desire
01:54
to meet those needs and meet that standard
