About this Episode

In this inaugural episode, Greg Lois explores two powerful topics:

  1. Building authentic community within the insurance defense bar, challenging the scarcity mindset that keeps firms isolated and competitive instead of collaborative.
  2. Strategic client diversity – how Covid revealed vulnerabilities in client mix, and why no single client or segment should exceed 7% of your referral base.

Key Takeaways:

  • Why defense firms struggle to build community.
  • Lessons from plaintiff firms about business development focus.
  • How to analyze your client mix for risk exposure.
  • The importance of market segmentation and government work diversification.
  • Action steps to build long-term stability and continuity for your people.
