  • WARNING: Signing of Contracts

    There are potential insurance ramifications of signing contracts without appropriate legal advice. Many contracts have "hold harmless" clauses included in them and put the insured in a situation where they may not be covered under their liability policies. This policy has an exclusion relating to Contractual Liability. Basically, the exclusion states that the Insurer will only provide indemnity for any contractual liability where the signing of the contract does not increase the insured's liability beyond what would have applied had the contract not been signed.

    NOTE: All contracts should be checked by your lawyer before signing.
