A commercial liability policy does not cover a $1.7 million class settlement against an insured that violated federal consumer protection law by authorizing unsolicited fax advertisements, the Illinois Appellate Court has ruled in affirming judgment. The defendant is a real estate agency that hired a service to send thousands of faxes advertising properties for sale. The service allegedly misrepresented that the recipients had consented to receiving the advertisements. In fact, the "blast fax" violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) because the recipients had not given permission to receive the messages.
The Act authorized $500 in liquidated damages for each fax sent. The defendant settled the ensui... by the Act are in the nature of punitive damages and, therefore, not insurable as a matter ...

Proposed tort reforms have focused on punitive damages and noneconomic damages, each of which pose problems for jury decision making. The U.S. Supreme Court decision in State Farm v. Campbell will greatly limit very large punitive damages awards, and will affect smaller punitive awards to a lesser degree. Noneconomic damages caps enacted by state legislatures have greatly enhanced insurance market performance. Insurers operate within the context of a highly imperfect, regulated market in which there is substantial price rigidity induced by regulation. Reform efforts should strive to establish greater predictability and stability in these awards components rather than simply being concerned with imposing specific numerical caps.

When home healthcare workers enter clients' homes, they bring more than medical care and help with daily living. They also bring the risk of liability. Whether clients slip out of their grasps in the showers or they administer the wrong medicines, home health care workers and their employers confront potential claims and lawsuits everyday. Right now, agents and brokers have an opportunity to educate home healthcare agencies of all sizes about insurance coverage that is relevant to them. To be effective insurance coverage must be comprehensive, including professional liability and general liability coverage. While these policies can be purchased separately, it's generally a good idea to work with a single insurance provider to try and avoid gaps in coverage. Agents and brokers should be ...
