This ethics-related program will address the difficult privilege issues that arise in the context of the policyholder-insurance company relationship. The program will explore defense-related common interests between policyholders and insurers, coverage-related common interests between policyholders and their creditors (sometimes including the plaintiffs suing the policyholders), and steps that lawyers and business people on all sides should take to ensure that communications intended to be privileged remain so. This course will be of interest to in-house counsel, defense and plaintiff ’s counsel, insurance coverage counsel, and law firm attorneys involved in their firms’ loss prevention and risk management programs.
Program Chair: Stephen A. Weisbrod
