It is imperative that insurance claims professionals, lawyers, brokers, risk managers, risk consultants, regulators and judges have adequate access to comparative state-law research. This book is designed to give the stakeholders in the claims process ready access to the law of all 50 states on the most important liability insurance issues to quickly learn and assess state law relevant to coverage disputes. The Second Edition includes nearly 800 new cases covering all 50 states and the District of Columbia, and adds a new chapter addressing Coverage for Pre-Tender Defense Costs.

The Commercial General Liability (CGL) Insurance Policy is the standard business policy used to pay claims for bodily injury or property damage to others. The policy is divided into three coverage sections-each with its own exclusions-and a supplementary payments section. Do you ever hear-or worry-that an insurance company will not pay a claim because coverage is excluded? In order to know how claims are paid, you need to understand the policy's insuring agreements and exclusions. In this book, attorney and insurance professional Dwight M. Kealy explains the insuring agreements in Coverage A, B, and C. He gives memorable examples of every standard exclusion-and some significant non-standard exclusions. He explains every supplementary payment, and he explains how policy limits impact how claims are paid.
