This panel discussion will build greater understanding of contractor’s rights and solutions to the MOLD menace.  Why we all chose to live and work in the swamp called Florida, we’ll never know.  The panel will answer questions such as –

·        What updates are there in the legal environment? 

·        As a business owner, how do I know if I have insurance to cover and if not,
           how do I decide if I need it? 

·        Once a water damage event occurs or a mold event is alleged, what do I
           do?   and how can I protect myself from further harm? 

     State of the legal marketplace on mold/pollution decisions

• Homeowners rights vs. business owners rights.
• Do you think that settlement decisions are being influenced currently by social impact/nuclear verdict developments?
• Assignment of benefits and referral; knowing what the changes are for the AOB law in respect to owners liability.
  
  Insurance Coverage Philosophy
• Insurance carrier perspective.
• General Liability Policy ramifications.
• Defense vs. coverage wording in exclusionary policy language.
  
  Remediation Best Practices
• Set-up with process following an allegation of mold or water damage occurrence.
