Regular Daily Claims 3397 0
Started by Ray Hall
In the last year or so I have been working Commercial General Liability claims on apartment houses and night clubs etc
About 75 of the policies have a mold- fungi exclusion for BI/PD claims by 3rd party claimants. All the attorney represented cases are dropped when the insured and claimants attorney are advised the policy will not defend nor indemnify on behalf of the insured.
Seems to me the trial lawyers will not take a good case of mold injury allegations; unless the insurance company wil...

Seems the BBB got a complaint the other day about a scam where an AFLAC insurance representative was taking advantage of women on the street and stealing their money. Now we all, at one time, thought that an INSURANCE Company has stolen from us, however this scam is netting COLD HARD CASH from unsuspecting individuals. The way it works is....the thief uses children to distract the target. While admiring the cuteness of the kids they are robbed of their cash ...

Tom and I were fortunate this year in that we worked a couple of storms (hail and tornado) as well as daily claims for different companies. Even though we were working, our claim count was far below the average year.
Being, for the most part, an optimistic individual, I spent some time today thinking of positives for the ’06 storm season. Here’s my Top Ten List:

Anyone heard of Step Down Coverage, Auto 3611 0
Started by ronone10
Hello, I recently was asked if I knew of a coverage called Step Down for personal lines auto. From what I understand, it is an optional coverage which gives the insured a different set of liabilty limits for a permissive operator.
In otherwords, if you currently have 100/300/50 AA/BB limits and you buy the Step Down coverage, you can select 25/50/10 limts to cover a friend that happens to borrow your car for the day.
Pretty innovative coverage and...

You Are What You Eat 3156 4
Started by Medulus
Three weeks ago I did something I had only done one other time since July 2005. I ate a home cooked meal. One of the facts of life for our profession is that we eat out a lot. For those of us who virtually spend our lives on the road, we may find ourselves in a restaurant more than 300 days a year. Bearing this in mind, I thought it might be a good idea to share some of our favorite restaurants with each other. Here, however, are the ground rules. The restaura...

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
Why the early bird gets the worm;
Life isn't always fair; and Maybe it was my fault.
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can e...
