ROUNDTABLE NEWS - SER's Practice Management Committee (PMC) hosted a member only webcast on Wednesday February 5th. "Understanding Negligence and Insurance: Insights for Expert Witnesses” was an hour long discussion including the potential legal exposure experts may face, carrying E&O insurance and pros and cons of certain clauses in the retainer agreement. Moderated by committee member Gordon Yale, the guest speakers were two long-time professional negligence defense experts—John Raspante and Lyndon Sommer. Mr. Sommer has defended professional negligence claims in both state and federal courts while Mr. Raspante has advised firms, including professional liability carriers, on loss prevention. The event is the second in a series of webcasts planned by the PMC and has received high praise from attendees. SER members can access the recording in our Library along with the presentation slides.
