Timeline
He argued Wilson v. 21st Century Insurance Co., in which the California Supreme Court limited insurance companies' ability to evade liability for bad-faith conduct by claiming their wrongful denial of coverage was the result of a "genuine dispute."
In Brown, Winfield, & Canzoneri, Inc. v. Superior Court, he successfully defended a controversial procedural shortcut known as a suggestive Palma notice.
Opposition counsel in the case described the California Supreme Court's 4-3 decision as "earth shattering."
In Minkler v. Safeco Insurance Company of America, Ehrlich persuaded the California Supreme Court to part with the majority of courts in the United States by holding that the so-called "severability clause" in an insurance policy renders ambiguous exclusions for the intentional acts of "an" insured.
Other attorneys described Minkler as important because it broadened coverage under homeowners policies to include many claims that previously would not have been covered.
In Cabral v. Ralphs Grocery Company, Ehrlich persuaded the California Supreme Court that the employer of a trucker who illegally parked alongside a freeway could be held partially responsible for a fatal accident that occurred when another driver lost control and crashed into the tractor trailer.
The decision ended a growing trend of judges dismissing negligence suits rather than letting juries determine whether the defendant was responsible.
Critics contend that the decision unreasonably expanded the potential for liability to the point that there is now "no safe place to park in California."

In 2016, Ehrlich will appear before the California Supreme Court to defend a $90 million class-action judgment on behalf of security guards who contend that their employers denied them legally mandated rest breaks.
