In 2005, Amicus Mutual Insurance Company was under litigation for trademark infringement and they knew that they needed a name change. Furthermore, to better compete with trends in the industry, the company would be converting into a stock insurance company. They would be providing statutory workers’ compensation insurance to employers large and small, with a concentration in construction, wholesale, retail, manufacturing, and other service-related businesses. To make a successful transition, they needed a name that conveyed that they were reliable and trustworthy. They also needed a name that was easy to remember & say.
