Has witnessing insurance cases changed the way you live your own life at all? Like do you find yourself being more cautious about things others don't think about or being more insured?

Absolutely having been on both sides in both pi and WC, I analyze everything. I’m less litigious but know if I had to sue I could. I carry higher limits on car insurance. Driving I’m overly vigilant.

Absolutely. I make sure to pay extra for broader coverage and higher limits. And, I won’t shut up about telling people to buy an umbrella that includes UM/UIM. I don’t change how live, though. I just make sure I’m insured for it…

Both my parents worked in insurance, they never let my siblings and I in the same car unless we were going as a family in one car.
The three of us wanted to go to the mall? Nope, two in one car and mom takes the third.

I find myself viewing everything as a potential law suit. Puddle on the floor of the supermarket, pothole in the parking lot, dimly lit stairwell. All of it.
