The group is under the direction of the Office of Fraud Prosecutors. Rygiel is executive vice president of Liberty Insurance, Millstone Township, N.J.

“For the past year, Gary has served as chairman for PIANJ’s Legislative and Regulatory committee and has a firm understanding of these issues and how they affect insurance consumers throughout the state,” said Louis Beckerman, president, PIANJ. “He will represent the views of insurance producers well at the group’s quarterly meetings.”

The Office of the Insurance Fraud Prosecutor, the Workers’ Compensation and Rating and Inspection Bureau, as well as several insurance company representatives also are part of the group.
