Our company retained Douglas Schockman at Fishel Downey Albrecht & Riepenhoff after a significant coverage dispute with our insurer. From our initial consultation, it was clear we were dealing with a specialist. His deep knowledge of insurance law, honed over many years since his graduation from Capital University, was immediately evident. He meticulously dissected the problematic clauses in our policy and built a compelling case for coverage. While his recognition in Best Lawyers for Insurance Law and Litigation is certainly impressive, what mattered most to us was his practical, strategic approach. He guided us through the litigation process in Columbus with a steady hand, securing a settlement that far exceeded our initial expectations. The one area where we occasionally wished for more was in the timeliness of non-urgent email replies, as his caseload seems quite demanding. However, when it mattered, he was always available and decisive. For anyone in Ohio facing a serious insurance litigation matter, Mr. Schockman is an excellent choice who delivers results.
