Insurance Defense

Working in insurance can be a lot of pressure—the caseload, the deadline pressure, the reports. The relationships we build with adjusters and reps at insurance companies, private corporations, and municipalities are true partnerships. We make their problems our problems, starting with thorough and pointed investigation and discovery, and carrying all the way through each phase of litigation. That means delivering necessary information on time and always keeping files moving forward. Because the quicker we reach a resolution, the faster you can move on to the next thing on your list.

We represent insurance companies, their insureds, and self-insured entities. Our insurance defense attorneys are skilled negotiators as well as experienced litigators. They put the hard work in so that you and your insureds do not pay more than what the case is worth.

Our Insurance Defense Litigation team specializes in:

AUTOMOBILE LIABILITY
PREMISES LIABILITY
PRODUCTS LIABILITY
CONSTRUCTION DEFECT LITIGATION
LABOR LAW & CONSTRUCTION SITE LITIGATION
COVERAGE OPINIONS & LITIGATION

I fervently believe that having Rupp Pfalzgraf as our defense made all the difference. This firm has a stellar reputation in Western New York and beyond. They have the breadth of experience of a larger, older firm but the energy and drive of a younger, more modern firm.

Jane, Insurance Defense Client

I have worked with Rupp Pfalzgraf throughout my career and they do an excellent job. It was a very complicated case as to coverages, contracts, etc. Sometimes this job feels thankless when we know that even when we make a good settlement, we pay, but at least in this instance, we not only won the battle, we won the war.

Congratulations should go to our attorneys for their diligence and persistence over the years. Thank you to all those who spent countless hours on the documentation, root cause analysis, and mitigation of future accidents and the dealings with OSHA during that difficult time.
