Worked for Markel years ago in NY as outside Claims Counsel. Great company with great people. Visited their offices often in or near Chicago. The management and staff could not have been more low-key, smart, professional or nicer. Not sure if that’s what is meant by the phrase mid-West nice but if it is that’s intended as a compliment and not as any kind of slight.
