David L. Brown Speaks With The American Lawyer

In an interview with The American Lawyer, David L. Brown, co-chair of Goldberg Segalla’s Global Insurance Services practice group, discussed the changing relationships of law firms and insurance companies.

“You’re seeing more and more consolidation,” David said. Corporate legal departments, in fact, are continuing to consolidate their panels — a trend that could accelerate as firms look to get “stickier” client relationships and ascendant practices such as litigation and bankruptcy, the publication noted.

“We see insurance company panels have fewer law firms on it and more business reach for the firms on the panel,” said David. “I think that’s important because what the insurance companies want, and what the law firms want, is to be partners and to understand each other’s business.”
