Author: Multiple Authors

Extracontractual Claims Against Insurers is an authoritative, insider's perspective on the best practices for defending insurers facing bad faith litigation and the potential for punitive damages. Featuring partners and shareholders from some of the nation s leading law firms, these experts guide the reader through their strategies for handling ... more »claims against insurers for allegedly failing to handle or pay claims properly and offer advice on helping clients prevent or minimize their susceptibility to litigation. From understanding bad faith trends and analyzing the impact of recent case decisions to developing an appropriate defense strategy for each client, these authors discuss the types of claims that currently dominate the legal landscape, and negotiation and settlement options in these scenarios. Additionally, these top lawyers reveal their predictions for the continued evolution of bad faith claims in the insurance arena and make recommendations for staying ahead of these changes to address client concerns. The different niches represented and the breadth of perspectives presented enable readers to get inside some of the great legal minds of today, as these experienced lawyers offer up their thoughts around the keys to navigating this ever-evolving area of law. Inside the Minds provides readers with proven business intelligence from C-Level executives (Chairman, CEO, CFO, CMO, Partner) from the world's most respected companies nationwide, rather than third-party accounts from unknown authors and analysts.
