Every lawyer needs to know something about insurance.
Estate planners have to master life policies and annuities, litigators need to learn the ins and outs of policy coverage and every member of the bar has to be aware of his or her malpractice insurance. In the last few years the World Wide Web has become good place for lawyers to find both primary and secondary information about many aspects of insurance law. The Practice Area on insurance includes links to federal and state statutes, industry regulator and bar web sites as well as recent news and case commentary. There you will find lots of content about companies, regulators and the practicing bar. There you also can search the archives of National Underwriters publications on the life and health and property and casualty lines.
