A Legal Guide to Recovering for Flood Losses is a comprehensive compendium of the law on recovery for flood loss. It has four parts.
The first part begins with an analysis of the components parts of the standard water/flood exclusion in property policies. That is followed by a discussion of discrete clauses in property policies that provide limited coverage for flood losses.
The second part explores coverage under private flood insurance - both primary and excess - and under the Federal Emergency Management Agency Standard Flood Insurance Policy (SFIP). Discussion of the SFIP examines in depth the requirements for proofs of loss as deficient or untimely proofs of loss is the most common reason policyholders are denied coverage.
The third part highlights when recovery may be obtained under other types of coverages: business interruption; builder's risk; equipment breakdown; commercial general liability; Directors & Officers; and automobile insurance. For each type of insurance policy, the treatise explains the coverage generally and then focuses on policy language that either covers or excludes flood losses.
The fourth and final section concerns recovery from tortfeasors: insurance agents and brokers; landlords and tenants; governments; meteorologists and businesses providing inaccurate information about flooding dangers or failing to warn customers about known dangers.
