The Verdict is In - How Your Claim Investigation Shaped the Outcome

It is the day after a major weather event and as the property claims start rolling in, litigation is the farthest thing from anyone’s mind. However, what actions your company’s property adjuster’s take at this moment will dictate not only whether the claim ends up in litigation, but your chances of success should litigation ensue. In this presentation, the panel will highlight the latest tactics utilized insured’s counsel, contractors and public adjuster as they seek to take advantage of inside property adjusters. This presentation will connect the dots between your claim investigation and how that shapes the outcome of the litigation.

Subrogation Uncovered: From First Notice to Recovery

Subrogation is a critical component of the claims process that directly impacts loss allocation and recovery outcomes. This discussion will address the subrogation process for claims professionals at every experience level, covering the fundamentals as well as the recurring pitfalls that can jeopardize recovery. We will walk through the lifecycle of a subrogation claim, from early identification and notice through investigation, evidence preservation, and ultimate recovery, while focusing on practical, real-world strategies. Particular attention will be given to evidence preservation and spoliation issues, including how to properly secure physical evidence, coordinate inspections, and avoid procedural missteps that can undermine a viable recovery claim. Whether you are new to subrogation or have years of experience handling complex losses, this session will provide actionable guidance to strengthen your files, protect recovery rights, and avoid preventable exposure.

Navigating Multi-Defendant Claims: Settlement Strategy, Risk Allocation, and Defense Coordination

Claims involving multiple defendants present unique procedural, strategic, and financial considerations that require deliberate planning from the outset. This session provides a structured framework for handling and resolving claims where liability, exposure, and defense obligations are shared among several parties. We will address practical strategies for resolving claims on behalf of the insured both before and after litigation is filed, including the advantages of early settlement that may leave remaining defendants exposed. The program will examine joint tortfeasor settlements in detail—analyzing release language, allocation provisions, and the effect of settlement on defense obligations and the insured’s continued involvement in the litigation.

Additional discussion will focus on joint defense cooperation agreements, the strategic use (and risks) of shared experts, and the pitfalls of relying on co-defendants’ expert witnesses who may later exit the case. Attendees will leave with actionable guidance on minimizing unnecessary trial participation, managing defense costs efficiently, and protecting the insured’s position in complex, multi-party litigation

Jennifer DeFlitch, Associate at Margolis Edelstein; D.J. Geis, Partner at Margolis Edelstein

e-Bikes and e-Vehicles

At this point, we have likely all seen an e-bike or e-scooter on the roads, but should we? PennDot and the legislature have defined what these mobility devices are and where they belong but that does not mean the people using them (or their attorneys) understand what they are, where you can ride them, and who should be on them. The insurance implications and coverage questions facing the riders, insurers, and public at large add another complicated layer to this novel and growing form of transportation.

Tristin Fabro, PA Financial Responsibility Assigned Claims Plan and Allison Krupp, Esquire with Elizabeth Hocker of PA Safe Roads

10:50am – 11:00am: Break with lunch to go or to eat during the last session

11:00am – 11:50am: (Breakout Sessions)
Condominium Conundrum (Acts, Liability, & HO6 and HOA master policies)

Condominium Conundrum highlights issues insurers encounter in navigating claims arising out of HO-6 and HOA policies, including the interaction between the condominium documents and the Condominium Act. The discussion will include first party property as well as third party issues including the effect of subrogation waivers and strict liability provisions.

Jim Cole & Alec DelConte

Proper Way to Handle Sex Trafficking Claims

Are Human Sex Trafficking Claims the next big exposure for the insurance industry? With recent media coverage of high profile individuals, there is not only increased attention being drawn to the issue but also greater judicial scrutiny. The purpose of this seminar is to not only provide attendees with developments at the legislative level, but also information so that attendees can adequately investigate claims with as much compassion as possible.

Scott Rybny, Thomas, Thomas & Hafer LLP; Joe Massaro, PA Restaurant & Lodging Association; & Greenlee Partners
