Firmwide CLE Presentation-- "Intersections of Bankruptcy Law and Insurance Coverage"

2:00 pm to 3:00 pm ET

1:00 pm to 2:00 pm CT

11:00 am to 12:00 pm PT

We are pleased to announce that next Tuesday, George Calhoun, a commercial litigator and bankruptcy expert based out of Washington D.C., will be presenting a firmwide CLE addressing the impact of an insured’s bankruptcy on insurance and coverage litigation.

If you have not run into bankruptcy issues yet, it’s only a matter of time, and this primer will be a great way to be ready for when you do!

After a general overview of bankruptcy law, George will be diving into important issues to consider, such as:

  • What options does an insurer have to protect insurance assets and coverage issues?
  • How to address and enforce a bankrupt insured’s pre-petition waiver or release of claims
  • How to resolve coverage disputes during the course of bankruptcy
  • What court do you want to determine coverage issues?
  • When are insurance policies and proceeds part of the bankruptcy estate, and what is the impact?
  • Can the insured-debtor satisfy claims by assigning insurance proceeds?
  • What is a Section 524g channeling injunction?  What does it mean for the underlying lawsuits against the policyholder?
  • and more…

This will also be a great opportunity to have an expert answer your bankruptcy questions, so please bring them with you!

We hope to have a great turn out for our guest speaker.  As always, lunch will be provided in the Chicago office.
