Topkin Law represents healthcare professionals, businesses, and insurers in complex, high-exposure litigation, regulatory, and insurance-related matters where strategy and risk analysis drive results.









Topkin Law, PL is a litigation and regulatory defense firm with over 20 years of experience handling high-exposure matters for insurers, businesses, and healthcare professionals. The firm is led by Mr. Topkin, who brings nearly 35 years of legal experience.
The firm has served as national coverage and defense counsel for major retailers and works closely with third-party administrators, including Sedgwick and Gallagher Bassett, on complex claims involving premises liability, catastrophic injury, and product liability. Our attorneys have represented companies including Winn-Dixie, Macy’s, BJ’s Wholesale Club, and Advance Auto Parts in high-value litigation across multiple jurisdictions.
Our practice is grounded in a deep understanding of insurance policies, lease agreements, and vendor contracts, allowing us to identify and enforce indemnity and defense obligations. In many cases, this results in shifting liability to the appropriate contractor, landlord, or insurer and significantly reducing overall exposure.
We also represent physicians and medical practices in regulatory, compliance, and insurance-related matters. This dual perspective—understanding how insurers evaluate claims and how providers are impacted—allows us to approach healthcare defense with a level of insight most firms do not have.
Clients rely on us for clear strategy, disciplined execution, and a focused approach to managing risk at every stage of a matter.











Attorneys, business leaders and judges highly respect our attorneys. Most firms defend cases. We focus on reducing exposure. By identifying indemnity, coverage, and other avenues for risk transfer, we are often able to shift liability to the appropriate party. The result is a more strategic defense—focused not just on handling the case, but on minimizing overall risk.

Lawsuits are stressful and emotionally draining, but working with Sanford Topkin eased a lot of that pressure. He was direct, honest, and genuinely cared about what I was going through. I felt supported every step of the way, and that meant more than anything.

In the practice of family law, developing a reputation is a certainty. The stakes are so high that many people talk to friends and associates about all aspects of their case. A lawyer who handles key issues well and consistently gets favorable results and gains a reputation that spreads naturally.
