American Family Insurance on March 1, 2005, reported net profits of $564,400,000.00 for 2004. That's up 263% compared to American Family's 2003 net profit of $155,400,000.00. American Family's net profits in prior years were $58,200,000.00 in 2002, $100,400,000.00 in 2001, and $236,700,000.00 in 2000. Articles discussing the profits are found in the Milwaukee Business Journal and Wisconsin State Journal and a press release from American Family.

American Family Insurance and other liability insurers have done very well in part because, and this is confirmed by Insurance Company Claims Manuals and studies, that those individuals represented by personal injury attorneys settle claims for 2.5-3.5 times more than those who do not have attorneys.  This is because many issues arise in car accidents, intersection accidents, motorcycle crashes and other injury causing accidents that lawyers simply understand better than most others.   See our frequently asked questions for more information.
