Session three of our insurance bad faith series covers motion practices and trial. Nothing may be more important than what happens before trial in your motion practice. Critical motions (including motions to compel as these cases are often won during discovery), responding to protective orders, filing and opposing summary judgment motions, and filing and resisting motions in limine will all be discussed with the aim of developing them so they best serve your case and trial. 

The final part of this seminar will cover trial strategy. Although trial involves many considerations, some of the more important tactics and presentation techniques will be discussed, including:

• the order of your witnesses
• presenting a cohesive direct examination across all of your witnesses
• effectively cross-examining defense witnesses

Charles Miller’s practice has been devoted to insurance law since 1990. Prior to 1990, Miller was employed by the insurance industry for 18 years as both a claims representative and claims manager, which gives him special expertise on insurance industry practices and standards.

Michael Cohen devotes much of his practice to representing people and firms with claims that have been wrongly and unfairly denied by insurance carriers. Using his decades of experience, he has recovered millions of dollars protecting policyholders, both individuals, and businesses, from insurance companies’ refusal to pay claims.
