The structural changes and increasing number of global mergers in the Insurance industry have shifted the landscape. Combine this with a redefinition of the health insurance sector and you have clients looking for law firms who can speak fluently about how the industry might ultimately unfold. Finally—add in a dose of large-scale litigation and big defense portfolios and you have complex needs.
Like Financial Services, Insurance companies use many law firms and have many large-scale relationships with law firms. However, only 16 boast Clientopia relationships—the strongest of client relationships.
