ICBC Confirms Mass Firing of Their In House Bodily Injury Claims Lawyers

Earlier this week an anonymous source told me that ICBC was in the process of firing most of their in house personal injury defense lawyers.  I had not seen any public confirmation of this so reached out to ICBC directly via social media.

The insurance monopolist confirmed in a reply tweet that they are, indeed, “winding down” this in house legal claims team.

Here is the short exchange that speaks for itself.

Hi Erik, since the launch of Enhanced Care in May 2021 the number of tort-based files has decreased to a point where it no longer supports a full, in-house legal claims team. As a result, we have begun the process of winding down that team. ^ap
