CGL Coverage for Property Damage Resulting From Defective Work: Your Product and Your Work Exclusions
Faulty Work as an Occurrence, Avoiding Additional Insured Traps, Exceptions to Exclusions
Recording of a 90-minute CLE video webinar with Q&A
The CLE webinar will discuss the often litigated and confusing issues concerning coverage under a commercial general liability (CGL) policy. The program will address the "your work"/"your product" exclusions and the exceptions to the exclusions. The panel will also review current case law and arguments for or against coverage for these claims.
Outline
- Property damage in general
- Damage to the insured's product
- Applicability to construction cases
- Damage to the insured's work
- Products-completed operations hazard
- Damage to impaired property
- Work of subcontractors
Benefits
The panel will address these and other issues:
- Can faulty work be an occurrence?
- What is the subcontractor exception to the exclusions?
- How can policyholders obtain coverage from the contractual indemnification obligations and the insurance obligations of their subcontractors?
- How does the "your work" exclusion mesh with a "product completed operations" clause in a CGL policy?
