Insurance and Legal Q & A

Bring your insurance-related legal questions for a night of "off-the-meter" discussions with our resident construction attorney, Dan McLennon. You can ask Dan anything!

Here is an opportunity to ask those insurance-related questions that have been nagging at you over time: Do you have a particular instance where you wondered whether your Insurance Policy would cover the problem? Ever wondered whether you should bring a small claim to the attention of the carrier? Need to know what to do if a claim appears larger than the limits of your insurance? Do you have any worries about whether you will have to fight with the carrier to get the coverage you thought you bought?

In addition to responding to your questions, Dan will be prepared to speak about such topics as:

What are reasonable expectations for coverage?
What is covered and what is not under general liability policies, such as: Defective workmanship vs. damage caused by defects (warranty vs. damage claims and Coverage for contractual indemnity exposure
What does it mean to be an "additional insured," and how much protection is provided?
What is covered by builders' risk coverage?
What tricks do carriers use to avoid converge and how to avoid them?
Using your own attorney at carrier’s expense
