All About Professional Liability Claims

This session will provide a step-by-step look at the lifecycle of a professional liability claim under UK claims-made policies. Topics include notification obligations, key coverage dates, reserving, defense management, use of panel counsel, and settlement strategy. The session also examines profession-specific claim nuances (brokers, accountants, design professionals, healthcare, D&O) and contrasts UK claims handling with US practices like the duty to defend and independent counsel rules.
