Insurance Law in a Nutshell is a clear, concise, and comprehensive
discussion of the fundamentals of insurance law. It covers various
lines of insurance such as Auto, Commercial General Liability,
Health, Life, Property, Cyber, Directors and Officers Liability
(D&O), Errors and Omissions (E&O or Professional
Liability), Employers Liability (EPL), and Flood. It also covers
topics such as the rules of insurance policy interpretation,
coverage for intentional torts, insurable interest, claims
submission/handling, duty to defend and settle, insurer bad faith,
insurer defenses, loss valuation, guaranty funds, "surplus line"
insurers, regulation of insurers, reinsurance, risk transfer,
subrogation, surety bonds, and waiver and estoppel. This new
edition also has new sections that discuss insurance for natural
catastrophe losses as well as business interruption insurance,
which includes a brief discussion regarding the COVID-19 business
interruption coverage litigation. This new edition also has an
expanded discussion regarding claims made insurance, which has
become the dominant form of insurance for newer lines of liability
insurance.
This casebook is the product of the author's thirty years of
experience teaching and practicing Insurance Law. The author had
over two decades of experience litigating and trying insurance
coverage claims prior to becoming a full-time law professor, which
means the casebook is written from both academic and
practice-oriented perspectives. The casebook lends itself to
teaching Insurance Law as a traditional 2- or 3-credit doctrinal
course or as an experiential course because it includes numerous
practice-oriented exercises that can be assigned throughout the
course. The casebook covers traditional Insurance Law topics such
as insurance contract formation and interpretation, insurance
regulation, insurable interest, bad faith insurer breaches,
property insurance, life insurance, disability insurance,
commercial general liability insurance, claims made liability
insurance, and auto insurance. In addition, unlike some Insurance
Law casebooks, this casebook includes sections on choice of law,
personal and advertising liability coverage for intentional torts
and intellectual property infringement claims, proofs of loss,
examinations under oath, efficient proximate cause, ensuing loss
clauses, and business interruption insurance.
