Barbanel & Treuer, P.C.
Profile
If you have a complicated issue you don’t seek advice from a general practitioner. You want an expert with a proven track record.
Barbanel & Treuer handles complex insurance coverage issues, a sophisticated niche in a fast-changing area of the law.
Barbanel & Treuer represents insurance carriers and reinsurers that write high-risk policies. “We deal with an extremely wide range of insurance policies, including general liability, professional liability, commercial property, occupational accident and special risk policies, such as aviation, entertainment, elder care and environmental,” says Alan Barbanel, named to the Southern California Super Lawyers® list.
Savvy clients view the firm’s small size as an advantage. “Our attorneys are highly experienced—we have no young lawyers,” Barbanel says. “When clients hire us, they know the lawyer who works on the case is very experienced.” Between them, Barbanel and his partner Stephen Treuer have more than 50 years of coverage experience.
Clients spanning the globe retain the firm to evaluate coverage issues and litigate disputes nationwide. The firm has handled cases in virtually all 50 states, ranging from Connecticut to Hawaii and Washington to Florida.
With such a breadth of experience, it is easy to see why Barbanel is often retained as an expert consultant and witness on insurance related issues.

"My Platinum profile ad has definitely paid off! My law firm is a boutique five-attorney law firm in San Francisco that had never advertised prior to this, except in Martindale-Hubbel. We have been a traditional insurance defense firm, and wanted to subtly let people know that we also do select plaintiff's cases. In the last quarter of 2006, we were retained in three significant plaintiff's cases, two of which are high-profile media cases. I also placed an ad in the Super Lawyers section of San Francisco magazine, to reach non- lawyers. Now, people at the gym, the coffee shop, the drycleaners tell me they had no idea what I do, and they will come to me when they need a lawyer. So, the ad also worked to reach non-lawyers in the community as well."
