At Legal Expert Connections, Inc., we make it our business to identify who you need to contact at an insurance company, self-insured entity, or third-party administrator to gain consideration on their outside panel counsel program. We then create a campaign to help you introduce your law firm to litigation panel managers.
Contact Margaret Grisdela by phone at 561-266-1030 or via email to talk about a business development campaign for your law firm. There is no cost for an initial phone consultation, and we encourage your phone call or email. We maintain a 24-hour answering service, so feel free to call at any time.
Insurance defense law firms that are trying to determine how to get on insurance panels for P&C insurance companies quickly discover that it is very time-consuming, if not impossible, to find the litigation panel manager they need to contact. Many of our clients turn to us after they have tried (and failed) to conduct their own panel counsel campaign internally.

A Structured Approach to Panel Counsel Campaigns
One of our popular services is to guide your insurance defense law firm through a three to four-month business development campaign. You get the benefit of a structured three-step process that brings an enhanced level of discipline and focus to your business development efforts.
Step #1. Professional Marketing Materials
We start by preparing attractive marketing materials that your firm can use in making an initial introduction to a panel counsel manager. Your personalized firm resume will highlight key partners, practice areas, courts covered, trial experience, diversity profiles, and other requested firm information.
Helping your firm to stand apart from competitors is a primary focus. Credentials, specialized services, and other distinguishing factors are all emphasized in the firm resume.
Step #2. Prospect List Customized to Your Practice
Working with our database including thousands of insurance industry contacts, we identify the litigation manager in charge of the approved panel selection process for your geographic area and within the lines of coverage of interest to you.
Step #3. Guidance on Contacting Panel Managers
Your team will get the guidance they need to reach out to litigation manager prospects in a professional way. We indicate who you need to contact and what to submit in order to be considered as an approved panel member.
Personal contact with prospective new clients is our goal for your firm. We do all the time-consuming background research to identify the right contacts, while you can focus your limited time on the actual business development process.
We are very familiar with attorney advertising guidelines, and strive to develop bar-compliant marketing materials. Our campaigns have withstood the scrutiny of one of the toughest state bar associations in the country.
