Top 10 Insurance coverage cases for 2009 and more
In reviewing the year end blogs and blawgs, I came across this list of the top 10 coverage cases in 2009. Page 3 starts the list of dumb insurance cases of the year; the top 10 significant cases are listed at p. 4; and then discussed beginning on p. 5; the cases include a discussion of whether single or multiple occurrences resulted when two boys fell into a pit on the insured's property (court found there were two occurrences); whether insurers are entitled to get attorneys fees from each other in coverage disputes between them (no; there is no exception to the American rule for insurance companies); and whether a contractor's endorsement which effectively reduced coverage to an insured was enforceable (it was).
On a more humurous note, here is a posting of the top 10 insurance claim photos; we hope that none of your claims are pictured.
