Vice President, Commercial P&C Account Executive
Miles Gresham is a Vice President in our Birmingham office. Prior to Stephens, Gresham was a partner with Parsons, Lee, and Juliano, P.C., a boutique litigation firm representing both national & international clients. He has over a decade of significant experience in insurance defense, insurance coverage, and commercial litigation. In addition to his litigation practice, Gresham provided contractual advisory services for clients on a wide range of insurance related issues.
Gresham assists our Birmingham clients with risk management, contractual analysis, transactional due-diligence, and overall strategy regarding claims mitigation. His insurance litigation background allowed him to see first-hand the problems that can arise for insureds when a claim occurs. These problems include having no coverage for certain claims and being underinsured when faced with significant exposure. Many of these problems could have been prevented if proper diligence had taken place prior to the issuance of the policies. Gresham uses his legal experience to assist clients in identifying potential issues that could arise in the future, and he works with the Stephens team to have an insurance program in place that will best meet those future needs.
Gresham earned his Juris Doctor magna cum laude from the University of Alabama, and his Bachelor of Arts from the University of Mississippi. He has been a member of the Alabama State Bar Association since 2006.
