Abstract
Abstract ‘Fighting the good fight’ is how some insurance defense attorneys view their position in civil litigation law as they work towards reasonable resolutions of personal injury damages claims and take the frivolous cases all the way to verdict. This writer was requested to analyze the day-to-day practice of an insurance defense litigator in tort matters. The focus of the paper was to provide those in the legal academic field with insight into defense litigation in the tort arena of personal injury matters. This paper endeavors to provide that insight along with suggestions as to areas of training that law students may benefit from if offered in law school to prepare them for the practice of law.
