Seminar highlights Firm's expertise on cumis counsel
Partner David E. Wood and Senior Counsel David A. Shaneyfelt were co-presenters at a Minimum Continuing Legal Education seminar on "The Right to Cumis Counsel in Construction Defect Claims" in October of last year. The two explained how policyholders can be at risk when insurers balance competing interests. The session also covered conditions that may require insurance companies to pay for a second, independent attorney to defend policyholders against a claim, and how to identify the conflicts of interest that arise (both generally, and within the construction industry) that trigger an appointment of independent counsel. The presenters also dealt with how disputes can be avoided in relation to that appointment.
