SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT WITNESS SERVICES ARE THE CORE OF RICK BINGHAM AND GIC’S PRACTICE

Mr. Bingham’s credentials as a subject matter expert have been accepted in both state and federal legal jurisdictions. His reputation for trustworthiness is displayed by the confidence reposed in him by the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission where, for 14 years he served as a hearing officer and adjudicated the most serious cases of attorney malfeasance.

We relish the challenge of explaining the issues and their applicability to the conduct of the parties and their consistency with or deviation from the standard of conduct or practice for complex insurance problems

We begin with a thorough examination of the record using the most powerful case management software and tools. We combine this with our unique experience to develop our initial proto-opinions. Supportive and contradictory facts are flagged in the record. We complete our work by writing thorough, accurate and well cited reports

 

Mr. Bingham is keen to summarize and report our findings in depositions and at trial
Mr. Bingham and the Glynloen team are proud of two things when it comes to their subject matter expert work:

  • GIC has been retained on more than one occasion by the same law firm
  • GIC has been retained by law firms that have been in opposition to clients that engaged GIC

Some experts hate putting together detailed, accurate and clear reports, standing up to rebuttal experts or giving trial testimony and depositions. We love it! The sting of battle brings out the best in us. Our reports ROCK!!! We would love to show you one.

 

The following are representative samples of GIC’s engagements as a subject matter expert. Glynloen Insurance Consulting has been retained by:

  • Department of Financial Services as an expert to review the claims practices of an insurance entity in Receivership, in a case for damages against the Directors and Officers of the insurer as well as their outside auditor. This required analysis of issues such as corporate governance, claim reserving, communication with claimants, and adherence to fair claims practice rules and file documentation standards for claims.
  • Third-Party Claims Administrator in a Federal action against them alleging breach of contract and incompetent claim handling. Relying upon the extensive work of GIC the client was able to rid themselves of the case by dispositive motion.
  • A cedent in litigation with a facultative reinsurer concerning the claim cessions of a tier 3 asbestos policyholder. Mr. Bingham and his team reviewed the record of over 40,000 pages and authored a 70-page report in less than 5 weeks. Issues addressed concerned late notice, proper reserving and the rights of inspection and participation by the facultative reinsurer. Mr. Bingham also authored an 80-page rebuttal report and gave testimony via deposition.
  • A primary carrier being sued by an excess carrier for equitable subrogation for bad faith and allegations of statutory bad faith. Mr. Bingham authored a 94-page report with 445 citations and a rebuttal report of 57 pages with 142 citations disputing the allegations.
  • A law firm being sued by an excess carrier for negligence in defense of an insurance action. The excess carrier alleges that the defense of a maritime claim was flawed and that the lawyer inadequately prepared the case for trial and that counsel was responsible for providing late notice to the excess carrier.

Mr. Bingham has also been engaged and testified or reported upon the relevancy of fair claims practices rules and regulations in Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Illinois, California, South Carolina and Pennsylvania.
