ALPS Corporation Goes Live on OneShield Market Solutions to Modernize LawyerCare Operations

OneShield, a provider of modern, AI powered systems for commercial property & specialty insurers and MGAs, today announced that ALPS Property & Casualty Insurance Company (ALPS), the nation's largest direct writer of lawyers' malpractice insurance, has gone live on OneShield Market Solutions (OMS) for policy administration of its LawyerCare lawyers' professional liability (LPL) program. The implementation positions ALPS to operate its recently acquired broker-distributed book of business on a modern, scalable core platform purpose-built for specialty carriers.

ALPS, founded by lawyers for lawyers in 1988, has built its reputation on serving solo and small law firms through a direct distribution model. In 2025, ALPS acquired LawyerCare from ProAssurance, a broker-channel LPL brand, broadening the company's reach into new markets and establishing a dual-distribution strategy. The decision to implement OMS reflects ALPS's commitment to supporting this growth with technology designed for speed and configurability.

The initial go-live was completed in about 6 months from project start and focuses on policy administration for the LawyerCare program, replacing a legacy platform with OMS's modern, cloud-based infrastructure. OMS provides ALPS with pre-loaded insurance content, configurable workflows, and a managed-service delivery model that bundles the system, implementation, support, and ongoing enhancements under a single subscription.

"ALPS has a clear strategy for growth, and the LawyerCare implementation is a strong example of what OMS is built for: getting a specialty carrier operational on a modern platform quickly, with insurance content and workflows that are ready to configure, not build from scratch," said Rex Blazevich, President of OneShield Market Solutions.

"System transitions are never simple, and this one carried an additional layer of complexity. The LawyerCare team joined ALPS through an acquisition, which meant adapting to a new company and a new core system at the same time. What stood out was how engaged they were throughout the process. They played an integral role in the decision to select OneShield and were hands-on during the implementation. The OneShield team matched that energy with professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine compassion for what our people were going through. That partnership made all the difference," said Michael McCullough, Director of Information Technology of ALPS Corporation.

The ALPS implementation further strengthens OneShield's track record in the lawyers' professional liability line of business and continues the OMS platform's momentum with specialty carriers nationwide. ALPS and OneShield plan to expand the partnership in the coming months with additional capabilities, including claims functionality, and to explore OneShield's AI Hub to support operational efficiency.
