Time: 1:00pm – 4:15pm

Liquor consumption in social settings can increase the exposures for liability insurers, both in commercial settings and in homes. Our legal experts will cover key liability issues arising in these settings and provide an update on the new case law addressing recent decisions.

Insurance professionals from brokers, to underwriters to adjusters must balance between confirming coverage and exclusions. Investigating a loss under pressure from the Insured can result in allegations of bad faith. Learn how to avoid bad faith claims and how to deal with them when they arise in practice, including the common challenge of investigating a loss while the claimant has already commenced in bad faith claims.

Insurance has limits, and losses that overlap policy limits can create conflict between insurer and insured. If not properly handled, the Insurer could lose its right to choose and direct counsel.  We will discuss these conflicts, how best to deal with them, and strategies for working within the limits.

Seminar Objectives

• Review of Liquor Liability and the recent decisions of the new case law.
