Regan Toups has the unique experience of working both as a practicing attorney and an insurance industry insider. After a 17-year career defending healthcare providers, hospitals and businesses with a regional law firm, Regan transitioned to an in-house role, where she worked over four and a half years managing complex and catastrophic litigation and claims for insurance carriers nationwide.

In 2022, Regan joined the firm and returned to private practice, with a focus on civil defense litigation, including trucking and transportation, products liability and premises liability.
