This presentation is a fast-paced and wide-ranging examination of issues connected to naming insureds correctly on insurance policies - a seemingly simple matter that has deep implications. The seminar is divided into two parts. The first is the "rules" of how to determine what name or names go on the dec page as a named insured. The second is the "whys" of those rules, seeking to answer: (a) why it matters who's named on the policy; and (b) what the policy implications are.
