Cailie A. Currin has over 12 years experience in the Life Insurance industry. She began her insurance career in the Life Bureau of the New York State Insurance Department where she reviewed group and individual life insurance and annuity policy forms to determine compliance with NY law. As a supervisor at the Department, she was responsible for training new attorneys in all product areas. She was involved in working with the actuarial unit to develop Department positions on innovative products and difficult issues that arose in the life insurance industry. Ms. Currin was very involved in the Department’s early speed-to-market efforts, helping the Life Bureau move from an approval process that literally took years to one that moved at a pace more suited to the modern financial services marketplace. While there is still much work to be done, Ms. Currin was integral to the early efforts in this direction.

After leaving the Department, Ms. Currin worked as a senior compliance attorney in the state compliance office of a major life insurance company and learned the life insurance industry from the inside. She brings to her law practice her personal experience of balancing the competing demands that face in-house compliance efforts. She understands the importance of meeting deadlines for a product launch and the coordinated effort that takes within a company. She understands the pressure to be competitive and have innovative products in the market. In private practice as a Principal at Hinman Straub, Ms. Currin has been instrumental in working with many life insurance companies: to develop innovative products within the framework of NY’s regulatory environment; to get their products approved in a timely manner; to handle the day-to-day compliance matters that arise in the life insurance industry; and to address New York State Insurance Department post-approval review inquiries.

In private practice, Ms. Currin brings her experience as a regulator and an in-house compliance attorney to every project. She understands your needs as the client with products to sell and she understands the regulatory concerns that may arise upon Department review.
