I think malpractice insurance could be made mandatory, just like continuing legal education is. Of course the odds of that happening are very slim. You’re not crazy Jim.

Disclosure shouldn't be an issue. We have to have a certain level of education, we have to pass tests, we have to maintain our licenses. All of these are measures to ultimately protect our clients. Why should we also not be required to maintain insurance to protect them? Just my 2 cents. But then again, I think that doctors should also be required to carry a certain amount of insurance and auto policy minimums should be much higher, so maybe I am just crazy. www.TheBarberLawFirm.com More than requiring lawyers to disclose whether they have insurance, I think Texas lawyers should be required to carry insurance.
