OVERVIEW AND TOPICS
Construction Court Cases and Issues
In this session, agents will identify construction exposures that could have a significant impact on their client’s business. They will discuss faulty workmanship, general contractors, subcontractors, defective work, insurance requirements common in construction contracts and why they are important, and exclusions. Using construction court cases, they will examine the exposures, coverage issues, gaps, and pitfalls with traditional property and casualty insurance policies and explore possible insurance solutions to these unique risks.
Contractual Liability Confusion
The objective of this 4-hour session is to help insurance professionals better understand contractual liability coverage. After an overview of contractual risk transfer, they will identify contract issues encountered when entering into hold-harmless agreements, indemnification agreements, leases, and construction contracts. They will discuss various categories of indemnity agreements including why some may be void and unenforceable, potential defenses to indemnity, and the mechanics of third party over actions. Specific issues related to Additional Insured status will be examined and alternative ways to minimize insurance coverage conflicts will be discussed. They will discuss waiver of subrogation versus waiver of all rights of recovery. Using straightforward examples, they will be able to apply these principles to ever more complex situations and enhance their overall command of an often-misunderstood aspect of contractual liability.
Cannabis, An Evolving Topic - It’s Not Just A Drug
The trend toward mainstreaming and legitimizing marijuana is here and will continue to have a significant impact on the insurance industry. With that trend comes new regulations and a huge number of insurance questions and issues. Even today, there seems to be misunderstanding about the differences between hemp and cannabis. After a brief review of the history of cannabis in the U.S., participants will discuss the legal and regulatory issues. They will learn how the 2018 Farm Bill changed the landscape and what it effectively did. Using current ISO forms, they will examine insurance coverage considerations with farm, general liability, commercial property, as well as endorsements. They will discuss other associated issues and challenges with insuring hemp and cannabis risks including banking problems, transportation, medical marijuana and workers compensation, product liability, D&O, crime, E&O and medical professional, employment practices liability, and cyber.
Commercial Property, Key Items To Understand
Commercial property insurance policies are fraught with a “minefield” of exclusions, limits, and conditions. Participants will identify some of the areas that could be most concerning to their insureds, especially after a loss has occurred, and examine ways to solve them. They will discuss significant issues regarding ordinance or law, additional covered property, additional building property, debris removal, pollutant clean up, rebuilding expenses following a disaster, property valuations, and loss settlements.
