How to Make a Claim

Prompt claims reporting is critical to the process of bringing claims to a successful resolution.

Members aware of any actual or potential claim must report it immediately to their insurer. Please refrain from making any written or oral statements to the claimant, unless the insurer advises to do so. Please do not offer to compensate a client as such action could interfere legally with the management of a claim.
