If you're using Rails, another approach is to use try (http://apidock.com/rails/Object/try ).def rqstatequote_request.try(:status) || "unsubmitted"end#try is very nice in this case, but avoid overdoing it. I have faced many codebases with tons of try methods chained and then you lose code readability.
A gotcha is that if quote_request is non nil, but doesn't actually have a method called status then try will ignore the NoMethodError and just return nil ( try! on the other hand will raise in this case). Prior to rails 4, try behaved like try!
