Insurance Defense Litigation

At Ritzler, Coughlin & Swansinger, Ltd., our depth of experience working with national and international insurance companies has made us skillful and dependable advocates. In our insurance defense work, we are bold, reliable, and aggressive. While we are seasoned negotiators, we are always willing to go to trial if necessary.

Our trial attorneys have litigated insurance matters such as:

• Denial of claims
• Reservation of rights
• Bad faith claims
• Breach of contract
• Errors and omissions
• Property and casualty claims
• Asbestos & toxic tort litigation
• Excess coverage
• Insolvency
• Reinsurance
• Premises liability
• Product and retailer liability

Because insurance defense law is such a complex subject, our close ties with claims adjusting firms and their in-house counsel are invaluable, as are our relationships with professional risk managers. We are always seeking to educate ourselves in the latest case law and statutory law in this and our other practice areas.

While our attorneys are experienced in the litigation of insurance disputes, they are also well-versed in mediation, arbitration, and negotiation. Working closely with our clients, we structure each approach according to the insurer's goals and desires. By focusing on defense for insurance companies, we have gained insight into the specialized needs of insurers.
