Mr. Shernoff is a nationally recognized trail blazer who has been called the pioneer of insurance bad faith after persuading the California Supreme Court to establish new case law that permits plaintiffs to sue insurance companies for bad faith seeking both compensatory and punitive damages (Egan v. Mutual of Omaha). He has since continued to obtain significant verdicts and court decisions which have shaped this area of law as well as written three books and roughly 100 articles on the topic of insurance bad faith.
