In the debut episode of Season 2, we spend some time with Bill Wilson, the founder, and CEO of www.InsuranceCommentary.com, a website dedicated to property & casualty commentary; a site we all have saved to our favorites here at the PGI home office.  Mr. Wilson is also the author of six books, two of which are insurance-themed, “When Words Collide: Resolving Insurance Coverage and Claims Disputes” and “20/20 Vision: Why Insurance Doesn’t Cover the COVID-19 Pandemic.” If that is not enough to convince you of Mr. Wilson's expertise, Bob Rusbuldt, CEO of the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America says, “Bill Wilson is the nation’s foremost leading expert on form, coverage, and technical issues.” So what are you waiting for?
