I have known Ty Sagalow for 25 years both professionally and personally. He is, by far, the most knowledgeable and creative individual in the insurance industry on reputation risk and reputation insurance. He truly understands brand risk and crisis management and can, and has, taken that understanding to develop extraordinary brand and reputation insurance policies. He is one of a kind.
I have known Ty for over 20 years both as a colleague and a good friend. We have worked side by side on many projects both at AIG and at Zurich. Ty possesses the greatest attributes of a chief underwriting officer, chief innovation officer and general counsel all rolled into one. He is a great leader who has the unique ability to take an idea and translate into reality providing new revenue streams for any company fortunate enough to hire him. He has my highest recommendation.
Ty, I have no doubt your report was instrumental in moving the defendant up in the zone of reasonable settlement. They initiated these discussions [right] after getting your report. Thank-you.

I wanted to let you know I retained Ty Sagalow to act as an expert on the broker malpractice case I am handling. He did a first class report and identified an issue that I had not thought of before. His opinion on that issue could be a game changer in favor of the Firm client. Thank you for recommending him.

My working relationship with Ty Sagalow spans over his employment at Zurich and now with Innovation Insurance Group. IIG’s initial engagement was to refine an insurance product under development and then secure suitable insurance partners. Ty accomplished both and the product is now ready for market introduction.
Other similar product and program opportunities are now in the pipeline with IIG acting as a product development consultant to Hub International in the design, development and refinement of proprietary insurance product offerings.
Our expectation for these next opportunities are very high based on Ty’s performance and “proven results” during his initial engagement.
Ty – I wanted to thank you again for your assistance with the trial this week. It was a good team and you did a great job with your testimony. I loved working with you!

I have had the good fortune to know Ty for over 30 years, first as an insurance carrier executive with whom I have done business and now as a trusted consultant to the Newman Team at Aon plc. He is, in my opinion, the top product development person in the industry. He has the unique ability to take new ideas, whether from a carrier, a broker or a client, and turn them into actual insurance products and solutions in a very quick, efficient and cost effective manner.
One of Ty’s greatest attributes is his ability to listen to a client, understand their needs and address that need with an innovative solution.
I can strongly recommend Ty to any person or company, of whatever size or industry, who is looking for unique insurance solutions to their needs or for the needs of their customers.
