In November 2018, Trief & Olk prevailed after a judge trial in a suit claiming that William Penn Life Insurance Company had wrongfully denied $3 million in coverage. The life insurance company claimed that the insured allegedly misrepresented material information in the application for the life insurance coverage. The court found that the insurer had not met its burden of establishing that the insured materially misrepresented his medical and social history, awarding the beneficiary the full $3 million plus nearly five years in interest.
