Erik R. Overlid

Erik's practice is primarily in the areas of General Liability, Construction, and Auto. Prior to joining Arthur Chapman, Erik worked with many of the nation's top insurers in defending a wide variety of actions on both CGL and auto policies, as well as prosecuting subrogation matters. Outside of his insurance practice, Erik also provides cost-effective advise to businesses on non-litigated matters. Erik's clients appreciate his advice on helping to prevent lawsuits from arising, but also ensuring his clients are prepared if litigation does happen.

Erik received his law degree from the Thomas M. Cooley Law School in Grand Rapids, Michigan and is licensed to practice in Minnesota and California. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his wife and daughter. He also enjoys the Midwestern favorites: fishing, golfing, and traveling.
