Providing comprehensive legal expertise in insurance coverage, bad faith claims, and serving as an expert witness. Your trusted partner in navigating complex legal matters.
I can help you with any coverage issue. My experience has not only afforded me the knowledge to address all questions you may have, but also the ability to provide you with a clear understanding of the intricate policy language at the heart of your dispute.
I am available to speak on a variety of topics related to insurance. I have served on panels at several attorney organization meetings.
Serving as the carrier’s top troubleshooter allowed me to participate in numerous dispute resolution forums from trial court mediations to resolution of federal multi-district class actions.
I had the privilege of working with Kathleen for the better part of two decades on some of the most complex and high-stakes insurance coverage and litigation matters. Her sharp and insightful skills and instincts are unmatched and speak volumes about the high caliber of her expertise. Her depth of knowledge, strategic insight, and steady leadership consistently drove countless successes, even in the most challenging circumstances. She is truly a top-tier professional – – respected, trusted, and one of the very best in the field.

I have worked with Kathleen Lopilato for many years on cases involving insurance claims. The key to those cases is having a good witness who can teach and explain the good reasons an insurer may sometimes need to deny a claim — and why the jury should agree. Kathleen has that ability. She has decades of experience and a highly professional demeanor that opposing counsel find hard to cross-examine. She would be ideal for any case involving insurance coverage and claim practices.

I have worked closely with Kathleen on many first party cases for over 20 years. She is exceptionally smart and understands the nuances of coverage and the duties owed by carriers arising out of those coverages. She quickly identifies the main issues in a particular case and offers intelligent solutions to those issues. I highly recommend her as a consulting or testifying expert.
