Decades of Property Casualty Insurance Experience
My career has allowed me to examine insurance matters from several perspectives. In addition to senior leadership responsibilities in claims and operations, I have been licensed as an insurance agent in Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, Florida, and Minnesota and have experience as a former public adjuster.
This background provides a practical understanding of insurance company operations, claims procedures, agency responsibilities, and the considerations that can arise throughout the property casualty insurance process.
My role is to apply that experience to the specific insurance questions presented and explain relevant industry practices clearly and objectively.
Insurance Consulting and Areas of Expertise
My insurance consultancy focuses on property and casualty insurance issues, operations, procedures, and practices. Areas within my experience include:
Insurance Company and Claims Handling Issues
I provide insight into claims handling procedures, insurance company operations, and questions concerning accepted claims practices. This may include evaluating how a claim was investigated, managed, evaluated, or resolved from an insurance industry perspective.
Insurance Agent and Agency Issues
Insurance matters can involve questions about an agent or agency's role, responsibilities, communications, requested coverage, and procedures. I help clarify these issues within the context of property casualty insurance practices.
Bad Faith Insurance Consulting
Bad faith matters require careful consideration of the circumstances surrounding a claim. As a bad faith insurance consultant, I can evaluate practices that may be consistent with acceptable claims handling as well as practices that may raise potential bad faith questions.
A disputed, delayed, denied, or underpaid claim does not by itself establish bad faith. My focus is on examining the insurance practices and procedures relevant to the matter rather than making assumptions based on the outcome of a claim.
Expert Trial Testimony for Insurance Matters
I provide opinions and expert trial testimony concerning insurance matters in State and Federal court. My areas of expertise may include claims handling, insurance agency issues, bad faith, workers' compensation, insurance principles and practices, and related property casualty matters.
I have testified more than 40 times across more than 20 states and have provided expertise in matters involving both plaintiff and defense attorneys. My experience also includes preparing reports for matters in federal court.
Expert testimony often requires translating technical insurance concepts for people who may not have an insurance background. I focus on explaining the relevant procedures, principles, and industry practices accurately and in understandable terms.
