Overview
Why You Should Attend
Still reeling from the opioid epidemic and ongoing Covid-19 impacts, the limits of complex property and casualty insurance coverage throughout the U.S. continue to be tested in the aftermath of historic natural disasters in California and Southeastern states. While policy holders and carriers alike have become versed in disputes arising out of property damage, business loss, and personal injury claims, conflicting litigation outcomes and proposed new regulation may challenge even experienced legal practitioners.
Moreover, legal advisors must also be well-prepared for lesser-known coverage areas such as expanded realizations about the use of forever chemicals and the proliferation of AI driven technology.
PLI’s third annual program on Property & Casualty Insurance led by Program Chairs Scott Greenspan of Sills Cummis and Sandra Hauser of Dentons, together with an incomparable faculty composed of some of the top practitioners in the country representing policyholders and insurers, senior executives from leading insurance brokers and insurers, and renowned insurance academics and mediators, will provide invaluable perspectives and skills-based instruction for those representing both policyholders and insurers, as well as other stakeholders. Attendees leave this program better prepared to advise clients on how and to what extent insurance products can address known and emerging risks.
