The course begins with an explanation of how insurance policies conform to property law, initially focusing on the different types of property. The rights and titles to property, bailments, security interests in property, and valuation of damaged property are also discussed. The following chapter discusses legal liability—a concept that is crucial to a proper understanding of liability insurance. A large part of this section concentrates on the complex issue of negligence, including the four elements of negligence and defenses in a negligence suit.

Agency law is a key area when it comes to legal principles for P&C insurance professionals. The insurance transaction begins with the agent or broker and defining what these terms mean is the logical first step in reviewing the concept of agency. Types of agency authority, categories of insurance agents, and differentiating agents from brokers are all reviewed. A discussion of the legal environment of underwriting follows, with an emphasis on the steps of the underwriting process and the legal restrictions that underwriters face.

Following the underwriting discussion is a review of the legal environment of the claims adjusting process. This chapter covers the types of adjusters, the insured’s duties after a loss, the insurer’s duties after a loss, the insurer’s options in responding to the claim, the process of resolving the claim, and related legal issues. The course concludes with a review of key consumer laws, such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act, insurance consumer bill of rights laws that many jurisdictions have adopted, and fair claims settlement laws in general.
