The most common type of general liability insurance for businesses is commercial general liability (CGL) insurance. The CGL policy starts out giving broad coverage then it restricts coverage through exclusions, limitations, definitions, and conditions.
This seminar explores recent developments affecting coverage for bodily injury claims under the CGL policy.  Commonly litigated exclusions, triggers for coverage, and co-insurance and apportionment issues under CGL policies are discussed.
Whether you represent policyholders or insurers, the presentations on this recording will give you the practical guidance you need to resolve coverage issues faster and prepare or defend claims more effectively.
