Preg O’Donnell is widely recognized for its strong insurance‑defense practice and is panel counsel for numerous national and regional insurers and corporate clients. The firm has deep subject‑matter expertise in representing business owners, municipal entities, and public‑facing organizations and have litigated thousands of cases.

POG’s structure, culture, and capabilities provide responsive, efficient, intuitive, and expert defense to their partners.
