How do we ethically represent insureds and insurers? How do we avoid
violating the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar and our Oath of Attorney
by serving the insurer over the insured’s interests? We must first spend
some time understanding the applicable Rules Regulating The Florida Bar,
our Oaths of Attorney, and the applicable law.
We must first understand that the tripartite (three party – insured,
lawyer and insurer) relationship does not mean that the entity writing
the checks will always get our first loyalty. Blindly putting the
insurer’s interests first accepts a risk you were not paid a premium to
assume. As does, putting your interests (financial, or marketing for
future business) ahead of the insured or the insurer.
