Auto Claims and Trials: Winning, Defending and Understanding Coverage

Lorman Education Services
Training Provided by Lorman Education Services Staying current on auto insurance law is crucial - and can make or brake your case. On August 31, 1869, Mary Ward of County Offaly, Ireland, fell under the wheel of her cousin's experimental steam vehicle and into history as the first documented person ever to be injured in a motor vehicle accident. Today in the United States, Mrs. Ward would be only one of an average of 42,000 automobile accident deaths per year. With that kind of volume, it's key that you ask yourself the important question - depending on your perspective - Are you paying out too much on auto cases? Or, are you accepting too little?

Whether you practice automobile litigation daily or simply wish to better understand auto litigation for your paralegal or insurance practice, this is one crash course you can't afford to miss. Benefits for You - Navigate the confusing policy language and law governing uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage - Successfully prosecute and defend auto cases - Learn to deal with tricky bad faith issues in auto litigation - Effectively prepare for trial - success lies in the details - Avoid the ethical pitfalls in personal injury representation
