In 2019, The American Law Institute (ALI) published the Restatement of the Law, Liability Insurance (RLLI).
The RLLI does not actually "restate" existing law, but rather attempts to reshape the liability insurance law landscape by recommending novel rules for courts to adopt.
The RLLI contains 50 sections of recommended or aspirational "black letter" liability insurance.
This year, in committing to ADLA, 900 members strengthened the foundation of the association and became part of the groundwork for our future members to continue advancing and innovating the practice of civil defense litigation.
