Most lawyers look for firm insurance with three objectives in mind — coverage offerings that are consultative, competitive and convenient. At Lockton Affinity Lawyer, we call these the 3 Cs. Here’s how we meet the need.

1. C Is for Consultative

A consultative approach ought to be the standard for law firm insurance. But most of the time, it isn’t. All too often, shopping for firm insurance can feel like a trip to the store — you head to the right aisle, pick an option that looks good, pay at the front counter and hope for the best.

This isn’t a bad strategy when picking out a frozen pizza, but it leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to the insurance you’re counting on to protect your practice. Claims these days are just too common and too costly to risk it with a one-size-fits-all, off-the-shelf solution.

Lockton Affinity Lawyer is different. We guide firm owners through an efficient, proven process, reviewing your current coverage, checking in with you about your needs and presenting you with options we believe to be the best fit for your business, risks and budget.

2. C Is for Competitive

Competitive rates are something every insurance customer wants — and every insurance provider says they have — but it’s also something that’s easier said than done. Some firms end up overpaying due to mismatched or overlapping coverages, but there are other reasons, as well.

As most know, on a long enough timeline, most attorneys will face some sort of legal malpractice allegation or ethics complaint. Whether or not it comes to anything serious, this is often when the competitive rate offers go out the door. But past claims like this often don’t tell the whole story.

The Lockton Affinity Lawyer team takes a holistic look at your current coverage needs, ensuring you have the protection you need, but not excess or duplicate coverages you don’t. We also leverage our deep relationships with top industry carriers and act as an advocate for our clients, giving underwriters a better understanding of your current risk profile and, as a result, securing better rates in many cases.

3. C Is for Convenient

Convenient service means different things to different people. Some prefer things old fashioned, like being able to pick up the phone and talk to a real person. Others prefer the convenience of taking care of business online whenever it’s most convenient for them.

Unfortunately, too many companies interpret the term “convenient” to mean overly complicated websites, automated phone systems and international call centers. While these things may be convenient for a large company, they are rarely convenient for the clients they serve.

At Lockton Affinity Lawyer, we understand that attorneys are busy people — who still sometimes have questions. If you need to, call us and a real person will answer your call and get you to the right in-house expert. For those short on time, request a quick price indication on our website.
