Insurance Disputes - Lessons learned and how to manage them
Good Practice guides, Codes of Conduct and Regulations are benchmarks by which the industry conducts its day to day affairs but how do they fair, in practice, when tested in a dispute with underwriters about coverage?
You will hear about real cases from one of the country’s leading expert witnesses to the courts about how “the law”, from its perspective views the industry’s disputes. The revelations are surprising.
ABOUT ROGER:
Roger’s insurance career started in September 1970 as a fire and accident insurance broker at Brokers at Lloyd’s, Leslie & Godwin (long ago subsumed into what is now Aon) where he cut his teeth on a wide variety of international property insurances in USA, Northern Europe and Scandinavia.
In the mid-1970s he migrated to, the then relatively new class of liability insurance, professional indemnity, the demand for which was fuelled by the rapid development of case law in the 1980s which created a new source of remedy against the professions and service providers of sundry types and sizes.
