Presented by: Leanne Palmer, Partner (Kirwin Norris)

Insurance policies provide essential protection to companies involved in all aspects of construction projects, and maintaining adequate insurance coverage is a core component of an effective risk mitigation strategy. When negotiating contracts in relation to construction projects, parties across the construction industry must ensure that the terms of their agreements address applicable insurance coverage to cover the risks associated with the project. From questions as to the type of coverage, policy interpretation, and issues pertaining to third-party and additional-insured claims, disputes can arise under a broad range of circumstances. Favorably resolving all types of insurance considerations, claims, and disputes requires experienced legal representation.  

At Kirwin Norris, P.A., we represent parties across the construction industry in first-party and third-party insurance coverage disputes in connection with construction projects throughout Florida. We have extensive experience handling these matters on behalf of property owners, contractors, subcontractors, professional firms and other entities, and we have helped our clients secure coverage both in and out of court. Our experience encompasses insurance coverage disputes involving all types of policies, including commercial general liability (CGL), builder’s risk and property insurance, professional liability, commercial auto, workers’ compensation and employer’s liability, as well as manuscript and types of policies relative to the needs of the project. We also have experience dealing with policies included in an Owner’s Controlled Insurance Program (OCIP) or Contractor’s Controlled Insurance Program (CCIP).
