Forty-one years ago today I left the world of the employed and became an  entrepreneur by opening my own law firm. The law practice was  incorporated shortly thereafter as Barry Zalma, Inc. When I opened for  business on October 1, 1979, I had no clients and no certainty that I  would have any in the future. I had borrowed money from the bank to  carry me through the first six months and was concerned about my ability  to pay the loan with my third child about to be born.  Much to my surprise and pleasure, on October 1, 1979, at 8:10 a.m., the  best claims handler in the London market, Alan Warboys, called from  London and provided me with my first case as an independent lawyer to  represent Certain Underwriters at Lloyd\\u2019s, London.

He, and the Lloyd\\u2019s  Underwriters he represented, showed faith in me as a lawyer and  insurance expert. Alan is now, and will forever be, my law firm\\u2019s first  client and is still and always will be a good friend. He is retired from  the market now as I am retired from the practice of law.  Although I retired from the practice of law, I still work an eight hour  day, five days a week as a consultant, author, blogger, and  videoblogger.  I was admitted to the California Bar on January 2, 1972. I practiced law  in California full time until I retired from the practice of law in  2015. To those of you, in addition to Alan, who have honored me by  retaining me as your lawyer, thank you for a long, productive and  successful legal career.  In 2015 I asked that the California Bar render my license to practice  law inactive and it agreed. I will limit my work to acting as an  insurance claims handling, insurance fraud and insurance bad faith  consultant, expert witness, educator and author. 

I Am Not Retired. I am Only Retired from the Practice of Law.
