Description
This casebook combines material from the late Professor Christopher French’s thirty years of experience teaching and practicing Insurance Law and combines it with Professor Traynor’s thirty years of experience in the insurance industry before both became full-time faculty members. The current author has over two decades of experience managing litigation across the United States, including major catastrophic events. This means the casebook is written from both academic and practice-oriented perspectives. The casebook lends itself to teaching Insurance Law as a traditional 2- or 3-credit doctrinal course or as an experiential course because it includes numerous practice-oriented exercises that can be assigned throughout the course. The casebook covers traditional Insurance Law topics such as insurance contract formation and interpretation, insurance regulation, insurable interest, bad faith insurer breaches, property insurance, life insurance, disability insurance, commercial general liability insurance, claims made professional liability insurance, and auto insurance. Unlike many casebooks on the subject, this casebook dedicates detailed chapters, including sample insurance policies, to specific lines of insurance, including a chapter on fundamentals of Reinsurance. In addition, unlike some Insurance Law casebooks, this casebook includes sections on choice of law, personal and advertising liability coverage for intentional torts and intellectual property infringement claims, expanded efficient proximate cause materials, and expanded business interruption insurance.
