IMPORTANT REMINDER
As coverage is written on a "claims made" basis, all claims or incidents must be reported to your applicable Law Society prior to July 1, 2020. And while notice to the Law Society is deemed notice to CLIA, merely recording a claim or incident on your application is not deemed notice to the applicable Law Society or notice to CLIA. You must still contact your Law Society and make a report of any new claim.
You have asked and we have listened. We are very pleased to be offering several enhancements from the great feedback we have received from our valuable clients, such as you.
