October 1, 2023 Another Anniversary
Forty-four years ago, today I left the world of the employed and became an entrepreneur by opening my own law firm. The law practice was incorporated shortly thereafter as Barry Zalma, Inc. When I opened for business on October 1, 1979, I had no clients and no certainty that I would have any in the future.

I was concerned about my ability to pay the loan with my third child about to be born.
Much to my surprise, and pleasure, on October 1, 1979, at 8:10 a.m., the best claims handler in the London market, Alan Warboys, called from London and provided me with my first case as an independent lawyer to represent Certain Underwriters at Lloyd’s, London. He, and the Lloyd’s Underwriters he represented, showed faith in me as a lawyer and insurance expert. Alan is now retired but will forever be, my law firm’s first client and a good friend.

Good News From the Coalition Against Insurance Fraud
When committing fraud, it is usually good practice not to do it right in front of a camera. However, this Colorado hail contractor just couldn’t help himself. The sales manager for a Colorado construction company says he may have been “too aggressive” after a surveillance camera caught him appearing to fabricate hail damage during a recent damage inspection of a home in Parker. Witnesses say David Kuntz was trying to drum up business in the Newlin Meadows neighborhood of Parker, offering to inspect homes for hail damage. He said he was unaware of a surveillance camera that was rolling as he inspected one home.
