In MVC I am using [Required(ErrorMessage="")] to validate my text. How do I utilize a validation for an "Email or Phone Contact" textboxes in my model? I now have the validation in my controller, which I would like to have in the model.

CONTROLLER...

        if (insuredInfo.InsuredHPhone == null && insuredInfo.InsuredWPhone == null)
        {
            ModelState.AddModelError("InsuredHPhone", "Contact Number Required");
            isRequired = true;
        }

There is a video tutorial on the official MVC website which might be worth watching:

Scott Gutherie has a good blog post entitled 'ASP.NET MVC 2: Model Validation' in which he explains how you can add data annotations to your model. That should give you everything you need.
