Subpoena Basics for Insurance Professionals.  For most insurance agents, everything they know about subpoenas comes from watching TV reruns of Law and Order.  This webinar provides an overview of this important legal instrument.  Learn about the different types of subpoenas, why they are important, and what steps you should take if you happen to receive one.

• Late Notice and Prior Knowledge.  Most insurance policies contain provisions regarding claims reporting.  These rules can differ based on the type of policy (claims-made, occurrence, etc.) and the insured’s state of domicile.  This webinar reviews some of these differences and also touches on the impact prior knowledge has on whether or not a claim is covered.
