Overview

Policyholders are often at a disadvantage when dealing with insurance companies. Insurers have a virtual monopoly on coverage expertise and frequently use this advantage to benefit their interests at the expense of those they insure.

Osborne & Nesbitt's mission is to level this tilted playing field by providing policyholders with the same kind of sophisticated legal coverage advice that insurance companies have long enjoyed. The firm combines AV-rated litigation skills with the "insider's edge" of having previously represented some of the country's largest insurers in coverage matters nationwide.

At Osborne & Nesbitt:

We are specialists. Our practice is devoted exclusively to insurance coverage analysis and litigation

We represent only policyholders. Since we do not represent insurance companies, we can give policyholder-clients our undivided loyalty.

We are team players. We work closely with each client's general counsel, litigation counsel, insurance broker, and risk manager.
