Description

Construction Insurance: A Guide for Attorneys and Other Professionals Stephen Palley ISBN 9781616328603

The intersection of construction and insurance is often overlooked, yet it is a critical area for construction practitioners. Construction Insurance serves as an essential practice handbook for lawyers, written by experts with extensive experience in both construction and insurance law. Each chapter provides focused guidance on insurance topics most relevant to construction practice.

The book opens with an introduction to fundamental insurance concepts and key construction delivery methods, including insurance-related contract drafting considerations. Six chapters then explore the core insurance products typically used in construction, emphasizing their application in real-world projects. Topics include:

  • Commercial general liability (CGL) insurance

  • Builders’ risk insurance

  • Professional liability insurance

  • Pollution insurance

Additional chapters examine construction contract indemnities, additional insured coverage under CGL policies, performance bonds, and contractor default insurance. The book also addresses special considerations such as wrap-up insurance programs, the insurance claims process during construction, and coverage for delay-related damages through insurance policies and performance bonds.

Each chapter concludes with curated resources for further reading, making this a comprehensive and practical guide. For anyone involved in construction law, Construction Insurance is an indispensable reference.
