Be Ready With a Disaster Plan
If the last year has taught us anything, it’s to expect the unexpected. Just in Oklahoma, the past several months have been a wild ride when it comes to weather-related phenomena. Ice storms, snowstorms, late-season tornadoes – we’ve seen it all over the last six months. Plus, our regular tornado season and our roller-coaster spring weather is just around the corner. Disasters aren’t limited to weather-related events, however. Fires, plumbing floods, even burglaries can happen at any time and can [...]
What to Consider When Your Client May Have a Diminished Capacity
When OAMIC receives a claim involving an estate, whether that is a trust document or a will, the issue often is was the client competent at the time the estate document was executed? The lawyer should be careful to fulfill continuing commitments to the client both to represent their interest and, in some situations, to seek additional help for the client. Oklahoma Rules of Professional Conduct, 5 O.S. 2021, Ch. 1, App. 3-A, Rule 1.14 provides the following: (a) When a client’s [...]
PHIL’S CORNER: Unexpected Reasons I’m Thankful for 2020
Phil’s Corner is a special column from OAMIC’s President & CEO Phil Fraim. You know, I started to say, “Thank you for 2020,” but man did I have to quickly rephrase that one! No doubt we are strengthened by adversity, but I have serious doubts anyone was sad to see 2020 sail on by. The most difficult part was not being able to predict when it might all get back to normal – whatever that might be. A new normal [...]
What Our Policyholders Are Saying
Mr. Fraim and the inside counsel were cordial and efficient. My inquiries were answered promptly and the staff was very knowledgeable and straight forward.
OAMIC sticks by its insureds more than any other malpractice carrier I have heard of – and I experienced that commitment firsthand. That peace of mind is priceless. I will never leave OAMIC.
I am very satisfied with the handling of our claim. Communication was first rate. I thought the analysis and resolution of the claim was excellent. I received good counsel about the issues.
You guys are the best of the best. I could not have made it through this mess without your kind assistance.
I was with a big, national company that offered cheap rates and made a lot of promises. But, after a few months, I realized none of those promises held true. I switched back to OAMIC and am so glad I did. That was a mistake I will not make again!
I greatly appreciate the prompt and professional way OAMIC dealt with my claim. OAMIC made the situation as painless as such a situation could be.
Although I felt wronged, I was very anxious after my former client sued me. For me, I needed to move on, and the way you handled the claim allowed me to do so.
This was a difficult time for me and I lost many nights of sleep agonizing over error. OAMIC’s handling of the claim was superb, as was the work of outside counsel. Top notch. I was ‘in the loop’ at all times. Thanks so much for your excellent work. I am OAMIC for life.
I had a very frivolous lawsuit filed against me, and OAMIC and my attorney were fantastic. I have discouraged others from straying from OAMIC based on the handling of my claim.
