"Lawyer opinions solicited: Is this an effective ad for malpractice insurance?"
What's particularly odd about that ad is that 917 is a NYC cell phone area code. Can't the Traveler's Insurance Company afford a land line?
re: 8:23- comment on 917 area code.
When the 917 was first introduced, it was also used for some landlines in addition to the more common "alternative" usage (cell phones, pagers, etc.)
I thought the ad was good. It grabs the attention. Of course, I'm a mere associate. Let the partners worry about malpractice insurance.
