Jonathan Meer (Partner-New York, NY) will deliver “Discovery Issues in Coverage Litigation: Concerns and Pitfalls in the Remote Environment,” a webinar in Wilson Elser’s Virtual Litigation Series, on May 20, 2021. While the COVID-19 pandemic has not slowed the number of claims being submitted to insurance companies, whether or not lawyers are working remotely, discovery issues in coverage litigations can be contentious and the stakes can be high. Jonathan will address some of the issues that insurers face in confronting discovery requests for their underwriting and claim files. This includes an understanding of what constitutes relevant materials; objections in discovery, including privilege; and depositions of insurer personnel. Jonathan also will provide some practical tips and takeaways for insurers addressing coverage litigation.
