Looking for resources on starting an insurance defense law practice?
Q. I have an existing law practice (solo with two associates) providing a General Practice. I'm thinking of trying to incorporate some insurance defense work into my practice. I understand that I will then not be able to accept most personal injury cases (which currently represent about 20% of my revenue). I would appreciate any suggestions to any books or other resources that I can go to to try to learn as much as I can about the insurance defense business to help determine if this is something I should continue to explore.

A. I guess you would be defending the insurance companies customer by taking cases where someone sues the customer. Then the insurance company would hire you to defend the customer. Is that right? That is part of the policy in the auto, homeowers, business owners and umbrella policy. This is a little out of the area for most insurance agents. You might repost in a different category. Insurance agents see the claim but do not get that much into the details of how it is defended in court.
