Please join Clark Hill LLP Member Doug Wood, Fire Cause Analysis principal, Ulises Castellon, and Capital Insurance Group Regional Property Claim Manager, Juliet Schade, at the Combined Claims Conference for their presentation of “Fire and Explosion Investigations that Sizzle!”, a fast-moving and highly interactive fire claims workshop. The presentation starts at 10:30 a.m. onTuesday, March 6, in the Royal Ballroom E-F, in the Orange County Hyatt Regency. They will finish up by noon.

This workshop is designed to help develop the skills necessary for a thorough and effective fire claim investigation. Claims professionals will acquire the tools and perspectives needed to ensure cost-effective utilization of experts, to avoid common dangerous mistakes, and to minimize exposure to legal liability in the context of the overall claim resolution goals. One important tool for any insurance claims professional responsible for fire cases is the newly published 2017 edition of NFPA 921, A Guide for Fire and Explosions Investigations. This engaging program utilizes visually compelling fire case examples to illustrate the current state of the art/science of forensic fire investigation and to help claim professionals ensure a complete and proper investigation in a fire-related case.
