Biography

Patrick G. Bollig has significant experience in insurance coverage litigation, professional liability and general liability matters. Patrick has prevailed on numerous motions for dismissal or for summary judgment and has obtained affirmances of favorable judgments for his clients before the California Courts of Appeal and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Patrick focuses his practice on insurance coverage and insurance litigation, but he also has extensive experience in real estate litigation, professional malpractice defense, and general liability defense. Patrick is often enlisted to assist on sophisticated and difficult matters including high-stakes motions and appellate briefs.
