Lawsuits by Firm Type

Name is a Lawsuit in the Last Five Years

As the number of firms covered by liability insurance expands, the number of firms reporting claims made against them has gone down. Two factors may be contributing to this. While the economy performs well, people are to busy and generally less inclined to litigate. A second contributing factor is the emphasis insurance carriers have placed on risk management training for their policy holders, which has been shown to have a positive affect on reducing exposure.
