WEBINAR – Primary and Excess Insurers: Who Does What?
Attorneys Nelofar Agharahimi and Brandon Howard will host the webinar "Primary and Excess Insurers: Who Does What?" on June 6, 2024, from 1-2 p.m. Eastern.
Join our attorneys as they delve into the complex dynamics between insurers within an insured’s tower, focusing on the roles and duties of primary and excess insurers under Georgia law. Learn about the foundational principles of insurance layers, including the distinctions between excess liability and umbrella policies, and understand how these roles are shaped by contractual obligations rather than direct duties. This webinar will also cover the mechanisms that trigger excess coverage, the strategic use of hammer letters and the critical doctrine of equitable subrogation with real-world case law applications. Finally, the attorneys will discuss practical challenges in managing layered coverage and provide actionable best practices for both insurers and insureds. This comprehensive session aims to enhance your expertise and equip you with the tools to navigate complex insurance scenarios effectively.
The webinar will offer one hour of continuing education credit for attendees registered with the Georgia Department of Insurance (pending approval).
