Insurance Law Representation in Louisiana
At the office of Shockey & Associates in Baton Rouge, our firm confidently provides advice and guidance to business clients in the area of insurance law. We are a firm of experienced and knowledgeable attorneys who are committed to helping business clients address a wide range of issues facing a Group Self-Insurance Fund.
- Leading our firm's insurance law and group self-insurance fund representation is of counsel attorney Jennifer Treadway Morris. As a former member of the Self-Insurance Institute of America, the National Council of Self Insurers and the Louisiana Association of Self-Insured Employers, she is able to advise small businesses on the specifics of self-insuring and how group self-insurance funds and self-insured employer programs may benefit the business or help your business negotiate a resolution of an insurance company termination audit invoice. Many regulations and law apply to insurance matters. Performing self audits is a way to catch violations and cure them before your company is charged by the insurance department with a costly violation. We are also skilled with worker's compensation company audit negotiations.
Below are some of the matters that our firm frequently handles on behalf of self-insured businesses:
- Regulatory audit review and appeals
- Drafting contracts for third party administrators (TPA) and administrator services
- Negotiating with TPA and administrators, actuaries, excess carriers and CPAs
- Performing self-compliance audits
- Negotiating with the Department of Insurance
- Litigating of all operations, regulatory, management and contractual issues that affect self-insurance from TPA and administrator accountability to excess carriers
- Presenting information to boards, committees or regulatory bodies
- Reviewing industry policies for best practices
In addition to handling the matters listed above, we also conduct periodic comprehensive studies of national trends in self-insurance funds. Once our study has been completed, our firm can assist in the implementation of changes to company policies that are consistent with the constant changes in business laws, regulations, cultures, and the insurance industry as a whole.
