This program will review developments and trends in coverage litigation under first-party insurance policies with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic. We will survey notable trial and appellate court rulings, share discernable trends in the litigation, and review the status of both state and federal legislative efforts to respond to the pandemic. The substance of the program will be updated constantly until the date of the Webinar.
Key Takeaways:
1. Summary of litigation trends in COVID-19 coverage suits; a mechanism for more than temporary work in a non-barred state.
