2020 Election Series Ep. 6: Business Interruption Coverage - Litigation and Governmental Action

In this episode, Suzanne Spradley and Erin Ziaja offer insight on litigation against insurance carriers that have denied business interruption (BI) claims for COVID-19 issues, including the recent decision where the court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs. The podcast also provides an overview of state proposals that extend BI coverage to COVID-19 related claims and other state laws enacted to provide immunity for businesses in cases alleging COVID-19 exposure. The podcast concludes with a brief discussion of the federal proposal for pandemic relief and the liability protection in the next stimulus package.
