WEBINAR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE

BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE WEBINAR

Luke Hanahoe, our managing partner and head of our litigation department, was delighted to host a webinar, in conjunction with Kildare Chamber of Commerce, on the incredibly topical issue of Business Interruption Insurance.  Luke was joined by David Lennon BL, who gave an excellent presentation to more than thirty businesses, operating primarily in the hospitality and retail sectors. Luke has been very vocal on this issue, having been interviewed on KFM and the Sunday Business Post.

AIM OF BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE WEBINAR

The aim of the webinar was to consider whether business interruption insurance covered closures caused by the Covid 19 outbreak and if they do, how can you

(a) process a claim

and

(b) what can you do if your insurance company is refusing to indemnify you.

In order to answer these questions we looked at:

1. The types of policies out there.

 

2. Some of the reasons insurers appear to be relying on when rejecting cover.

 

3. We analysed some of those reasons and gave our views as to whether they would hold up to scrutiny.

 

4. We went through some of the Relevant Public Statements and Legal Principles.

 

5. We went through the options available to Businesses.
