Got a bone to pick?


Hello! I’m Daniel Strigberger■
I’m an insurance coverage and arbitration lawyer. It’s not quite stand-up comedy — but I do spend a lot of time explaining things no one else wants to read■
For over 20 years, I’ve been helping insurers sniff out answers to tough coverage questions — from standard lines to the weird and wonderful world of specialty risks.
On January 1, 2025, my team and I launched a niche law firm officially named “Strigberger Law.”The logo? My last name and a square dot. Think of it as a beagle nose — precise, focused, and always on the scent. The core message is straightforward: When you need an insurance coverage or private arbitration lawyer, you need Strigberger.
We focus exclusively on insurance coverage — all lines, all across Ontario. Whether it’s a complex priority dispute, a tricky loss transfer, or a policy interpretation that’s raising eyebrows (or floppy ears), we dig into the details and deliver clear, strategic advice.
Our remote boutique firm works with insurers to navigate coverage challenges with precision, practicality, and just enough wit to keep things human. No fluff. No legalese. Just thoughtful, reliable coverage counsel — with the occasional beagle cameo.
Speaking of beagles, we love them! Read about Columbo…
For over 20 years, we have handled hundreds, if not thousands, of loss transfer and priority disputes (our knowledge leadership is often imitated but never duplicated)■
In the complicated world of Ontario’s automobile insurance scheme, there exists a domain that is not for the faint-hearted: loss transfer and priority disputes. These cases involve complex and unique issues that demand a profound understanding of both the legal framework and the intricacies of SABS coverage.
We do not merely dabble in these matters; Daniel has dedicated his career to mastering the art and science behind them, ensuring that every aspect of my approach is both meticulous and strategic. Our list of reported decisions speaks for itself.
I have authored the only legal textbook dedicated to Ontario automobile coverage law (I’m not saying it’s a bestseller, but my mom has three copies)■
We have appeared before the Ontario Court of Appeal on matters such as determining if an incident qualifies as an “accident” and if a vehicle is categorized as an “automobile”.
Additionally, we manage cases involving out-of-province accidents, out-of-province claimants, section 59 of the SABS elections, and WSIB claimants.
Furthermore, we handle many coverage issues related to auto property damage (PD), bodily injury (BI), uninsured motorist (UIM) coverage, and OPCF 44.
Complex coverage issues? Vague policy wording? Tight deadlines? Sounds like Tuesday. We’ve been at it for 20+ years, and yes, we still read every word■
We provide comprehensive coverage opinions on claims pertaining to a wide array of policies, including:
- Home: Liability and Property
- Commercial: Liability and Property
- E&O (Errors and Omissions)
- D&O (Directors and Officers)
- Marine
- Farm
Our expertise extends beyond opinions. We assist clients in refining policy wordings to ensure clarity and compliance, draft reservation of rights and denial letters, and robustly defend insurers in coverage litigation. Each service is delivered with meticulous attention to detail and a strategic approach tailored to the specific needs of the client.
