Full Coverage - An Insurance Agent's Duty to Advise?
Robert G. Devetski, Partner, Barnes & Thornburg

Your Liability Insurer Agreed to Defend? Don't Relax Yet
John Fischer, Partner, Barnes & Thornburg
Getting your liability carrier to agree to defend you in a lawsuit is an important risk-management milestone; however, depending on the terms of the carrier’s acceptance, an entirely new set of issues and concerns may arise. This presentation identifies ten coverage issues that commonly arise even after a carrier agrees to defend, and suggests ways to address those issues to ensure that you get the full benefit of your policy.

Christopher Lynch, Partner, Barnes & Thornburg

This session will provide tips to help policyholders avoid or respond to exhaustion challenges by their excess insurers.
