Download or read book General Liability Insurance Coverage written by Randy J. Maniloff and published by National Underwriter Company. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Those involved with general (and professional) liability insurance claims, such as insurance company claims professionals, coverage counsel, risk managers and brokers all respond to a new claim scenario with the same three words: Is it covered? [That may also be the last time that they agree on anything.] It's just three words -- but the answer can be vexing. Despite the relative uniformity of general liability policies, states can differ widely in their interpretation and application of them. So the answer to the "Is it covered?" question can depend a great deal on whether the case arises on one side of the street (or river or mountain) or another.General liability issues usually involve one or more rules, or schools of thought, that govern their resolution. The task for courts is often to identify and examine these various rules and decide which to apply to the claim before it. "General Liability Insurance Coverage -- Key Issues in Every State" sets forth the rules that have been adopted by all 50 states, and the District of Columbia, for 21 important and commonly occurring general liability insurance coverage issues. And about half the issues are just as relevant for professional liability claims scenarios. 50 State Surveys on insurance coverage issues are inherently limited. "Key Issues" understands this and seeks to provide as much relevant information as possible to maximize their usefulness. To the extent possible, "Key Issues" sets out the aspects of cases (e.g., facts and/or policy language) that were at issue in the court's decision. This enables the reader to compare the cases in the book, to his or her claim at hand, and come away with an understanding of how the issue may be resolved by a court. Although "Key Issues" is aimed at attorneys and insurance professionals with some degree of experience, it is accessible to entry-level readers as well. Chapter 1 provides an overview of the CGL policy. Each chapter after that contains an overview of the nature, background, development, and competing schools of thought concerning a key issue followed by a comprehensive state-by-state summary of relevant law, including the latest cases and developments.Table of ContentsCommercial General Liability Insurance-An OverviewChoice of Law for Coverage DisputesLate Notice Defense Under "Occurrence" Policies: Is Prejudice to the Insurer Required?

Download or read book Malpractice Liability in the Helping and Healing Professions written by Warren Freedman and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1995-05-23 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amid great concern for universal health care is succinct, well documented, accessible review of malpractice liability in health care and related professions. Freedman explores the nature of malpractice using commonly understood codes of ethics and statements of principles promulgated by the major associations of the health care industry itself, and then looks at malpractice liability from the viewpoint of court decisions and the fact patterns on which they are based. He also considers professional malpractice insurance and the right of health care industry professionals to determine for themselves whether the gains to be had from settling a claim out of court might outweigh the potential benefits from a successful litigation. Not just for attorneys but for their clients too, Freedman's book guides professionals through the principles of malpractice law, and in doing so provides them with guidance they need in today's malpractice crazed society.
