“BPM has flourished during Larry’s three years as managing shareholder.  Larry worked as a football coach before becoming a lawyer, and he uses those skills to lead, and manage, the growth of the firm and its employees.  We look forward to continued progress in his coming term,” Christopher Tompkins, member of the firm’s Management Committee said in a statement.

Gottlieb joined Betts Patterson Mines as a director in 2006 and was elected the firm’s Managing Shareholder in 2009.   Along with his re-election as Managing Shareholder, Gottlieb serves on the BPM Management Committee and is a member of the Insurance Coverage Practice Group.  

“We are fortunate to have a talented group of lawyers and staff as well as a wonderful group of clients that, together, make the job easier than you might expect,” Gottlieb said in a statement. “I have a great deal of respect for our lawyers and staff and appreciate the dedication they bring to their work on a daily basis.” 

Gottlieb has been practicing law in the Seattle area since 1991.  Specializing in insurance coverage law, he works primarily for the insurance industry throughout the Pacific Northwest as an advisor, trial lawyer, and appellate advocate in the areas of first-party coverage, general liability coverage, professional liability coverage, and extra-contractual liability claims.  He also represents policyholders in the defense of various types of complex liability and damages claims.
