Corporate lawyers and insurance defense lawyers are two different things, as you probably know but a lifetime fact checker for a local trial judge probably wouldn't.
My primary vocation has been suing insurance companies for bad faith failure to defend/indemnify. The only capacity in which I have ever 'represented' an insurance company, is by virtue of a retainer agreement in return for not suing them for a number of years.
