Barry Bares All

Our popular columnist, Barry Zalma, has just put pen to paper and has produced claims books that are worth the money – really. His premise is that it is  the insurance claims person – the adjuster – who works to keep the promises made by the insurance policy. The adjuster cannot, however, help the insurer keep the promises made unless he or she understands insurance, insurance claims, the types of claims presented and the law surrounding insurance and insurance claims. For the minimal cost of a paperback or Kindle book every insurer can place in the hands of their claims people information that will help them become professional, well trained, thoroughly educated claims professionals who are able to read and understand every insurance policy so that he or she is able to keep the promises made by the insurance policy with these tomes. Construction Defects and Insurance: Barry has updated and re-edited his seminal work Construction Defects Coverage Guide into the latest addition to his insurance claims series of books and articles that will form a thorough, up-to-date, expert-authored insurance claims guide. Quite practical, this series of books form the ideal guide for any professional who works in or frequently interacts with the insurance industry. Claims professionals, risk managers, producers, underwriters, attorneys (both plaintiff and defense), and business owners will benefit greatly from the ten volume guide. It is also the perfect resource for insurance educators, trainers, and students whose role requires an understanding of insurance law.
