What sort of problems arise when Architects and Engineers are unfamiliar with the physical context of a building site? How can they work together to ensure that things such as site drainage are adequately dealt with?When Architects fail to familiarize themselves with existing site conditions, they and their consultants may be designing in a bubble. In this case, the site grading drawings were fine, but failed to note that the site was at the foot of a hill.

Join Ben for his conversation with Dylan Ruga, trial lawyer and co-founder and President of Steno, a long-time sponsor of the pod. Dylan updates us on the new functionality and services offered by his innovative court reporting service, Steno. Steno allows plaintiff attorneys to defer costs of court reporting and videographer services until the end of the case. In states that allow it, these deferred costs can be non-recourse. Steno now operates through the Zoom platform but offers an app that integrates with Zoom and makes collating, marking, annotating, and saving exhibits at depositions seamless. Steno also offers videographer services that enable recording of the witness and exhibits and post-production editing so that witnesses and exhibits can be presented in optimal fashion without requiring substantial attorney time or other vendor for editing. Dylan also discusses the roll out of a new product, Transcript Genius, which uses AI that has been specifically training to understand and interpret deposition transcripts to enable lawyers to query one or multiple transcripts to quickly identify key admissions, information, or contradictions in witness testimony. If you are a trial lawyer who handles a volume of depositions, you will gain a lot of insight and value from this episode. Dylan is the Co-Founder, President and Chief Legal Officer at Steno, where he stewards business development initiatives and forges new partnerships. Dylan is also a founding member of Stalwart Law Group, recognized as one of California's top 20 litigation boutiques. He is a practicing trial lawyer with more than 15 years of experience in intellectual property, professional liability, and commercial litigation.
Today's episode is a masterclass with two leaders in the North American professional liability market. Often on this show we talk about the big picture in very broad brushstrokes, but today is refreshing because we are getting into specific and specialist detail about some of the most broad-reaching and dynamic classes of business anywhere in the world. Danielle Librizzi, Head of Professional Liability, and Chris Cooper, Head of Media Liability, at QBE North America have a lifetime of market experience between them and this is a lively discussion. Casualty is under the spotlight the world over, but nowhere more so than in North America, so these two senior underwriters are right at the frontline in the battle to keep on top of new perils and trends in the world's fastest-moving and highest stakes market. Here I ask what Danielle makes of casualty rate adequacy and I ask Chris how the pandemic, the trend to digital platforms and the writers' strike have affected the media liability risk landscape. How is QBE's professional liability division responding to the call for the globalisation of QBE's offering and far great collaboration between departments? And how is QBE utilizing Artificial Intelligence on the ground in its own underwriting processes and, perhaps more importantly, how does Chris view it as an emerging media liability and potentially systemic general E&O peril? I got all the answers I was looking for and if you stay tuned so will you. Danielle and Chris are excellent company and this will be a very rewarding listen for anyone wanting to get a better perspective on the North American professional liability market LINKS: We thank our naming sponsor AdvantageGo: https://www.advantagego.com/

As head of Professional Liability & Cyber Underwriting at The Hartford, he brings 25 years of industry expertise to the myriad issues shaping policy development and recommended coverages for businesses – whether tech giants or third-party users of technology. Anthony explains the differences between Cyber and Tech Errors & Omissions (E&O) policies – as well as who needs which and in what combination.

A wide variety of mix-and-match options. Specialized tech expertise to ensure optimal insurance outcomes. About potential cyber liabilities unique to technology firms: Network cyber-attacks.

It can take awhile to finally land on a malpractice carrier that you really like. And once you're all setup with them, it's very comfortable and easy to just renew your policy year over year. And to be honest, there are many reasons why it makes sense to stay with the same carrier for the long-haul. But, there are also some drawback and potential issues with staying with the same malpractice company for a really long time.

Buying medical malpractice insurance can be a time-consuming, frustrating process. There are many different companies to choose from, policy types to understand and coverage nuances that can make it difficult to really know if you're getting the best coverage at the best price. This is why most doctors prefer to work with an agent to help them compare options in the market. So, why not just have your current insurance broker – the guy who does your general liability, your business owner's policy, your worker's comp and your other commercial policies – do your malpractice? Isn't it just easier to have 1 point of contact for all of your insurance needs? Well today I'm going to tell you why this is actually a BAD idea. No offense to your commercial insurance agent, but there are a lot of reasons why you should NOT have him handle your medmal.

According to the AMA, 1 in 3 doctors have been sued for medical malpractice. And the data that we see from the insurance carriers shows that number continues to go up, depending on your specialty, where you practice, and how long you've been working. It's very likely that you will be involved in at least 1 malpractice claim by the time you retire from the practice of medicine. And if you've never been involved in a claim before, it can be a bit of an unknown… perhaps even a little scary and intimidating to think about what it's like to go through a lawsuit. So today, we're going to talk about what happens after you get sued for medical malpractice… what the claim process actually looks like from the insurance side of things, so that you can be better prepared if and when it happens to you. 1:32 The Five Stages of the Malpractice Claim Process6:04 Three Tips to Protect Yourself**********Contact us!**********
So, you've cancelled your Claims-Made malpractice insurance policy and now, your carrier has given you a tail quote – but it looks like there are multiple options? And the price is significantly different, depending on which option you choose. Well, the reason for the different tail prices is that the coverage is different. You likely have an option for an unlimited tail and a few options for limited tails. So, what's the difference? And how do you know which one to pick?Related Episode: How to Negotiate Tail Insurance https://youtu.be/q-tQe_ofRWI?si=4j0whjuEaF8HAEVS1:14 Tail Insurance Review3:30 Explaining Unlimited Tail4:39 Explaining Limited Tail5:58 Statute of Limitations6:48 Comparing Costs**********Contact us!**********
Interacting with patients on a daily basis exposes you, your employees, any independent contractors working for you AND the practice itself to professional liability. And, while it's pretty well-known that doctors and healthcare providers need to carry malpractice insurance, one of the most common mistakes that we see is forgetting to cover your medical corporation. But for most start-up practices, cost is a major issue and providers need to make sure they get the coverage they need – without breaking the bank. So, what's the best way to do this?

So, you're looking at malpractice insurance options and being the smart provider that you are, you've got quotes for both Occurrence and Claims-Made policies in front of you. You like the idea of an Occurrence policy, but the Claims-Made quote is so much cheaper in the first few years. So, why not just start with the Claims-Made policy now and then switch to Occurrence when you're a little further down the road? Well, CAN you switch – Yes… but there are a few things that you need to be aware of before you make this choice.

If you're an employed physician, chances are, your malpractice insurance is being provided FOR you. And while this is certainly convenient, there may be limitations in your malpractice policy that you're not aware of.
