About
In this webinar, Planned Cover’s State Manager for Victoria, Laurence Gottlieb, will provide an update of the state of the insurance industry in Australia before Adele Monaco, National Claims Manager, launches into a selection of professional indemnity insurance claims case studies. These claims examples will highlight the error – how the negligence claim came about, the impact –who was affected, the outcome – how was it resolved and how to avoid such a claim. This state-of-affairs update and real-life claims examples will provide valuable insights as to the impact a ‘negligence claim’ can have on a practice and how fairly innocent lapses in processes have the potential to turn into costly and lengthy claims.
