People Moves: Herman Named Alabama’s Insurance Fraud Bureau Director

A veteran police officer and fire investigator has been named director of the state’s Insurance Fraud Bureau and assistant state fire marshal.

Bill Herman began his career at the Montgomery County Police Department, then became a deputy state fire marshal, and was named a special agent in 2019. Herman moved into his new office this week, the state Department of Insurance announced.

“Throughout his career, Bill has distinguished himself as an outstanding investigator and team leader,” Insurance Commissioner Jim Ridling said. “His experience and commitment to public service will be an asset to the people of Alabama.”

The Insurance Fraud Bureau and fire marshal’s office are divisions of the Alabama Department of Insurance. The bureau investigates allegations of insurance fraud, and includes four investigators, five special agents and a forensic accountant.
