CLE Session 1: Water, Water Everywhere: What Attorneys Need to Know About Flood Insurance The issues of flooding and flood insurance have been in the news a lot lately due to Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. However, regular insurance does not cover flooding. The National Flood Insurance Program provides some coverage, but is limited and without further Congressional action, expires in December 2017. The issues of flood damage, flood insurance, and potential liability are all issues important for attorneys to understand--both for their clients and for themselves. |
