Insurance Expertise to Strengthen
Your Representation of Media Clients
Media Risk Consultants LLC provides experienced insurance advice for media companies. Chad Milton and Michelle Worrall Tilton have expertise in all aspects of media liability as claims counsel, insurance company executives and brokers. We are actively involved in the media law community and are keenly aware of the outside lawyer’s important role in media clients’ risk management.
The media insurance industry has become increasingly complex, and experienced insurance knowledge can significantly improve the coverage and price of your clients’ policies. Subtle policy language variations may mean the difference between covered and non-covered claims for your clients. In some instances, brokers and media clients do not properly identify insurable risks. As a result, media companies increasingly look to you for help to supplement insurance advice.
