Regulations, insurance and liability to highlight "ABA Forum on the Construction Industry" conference

January 8, 2009

CHICAGO, Jan. 7, 2009 – Despite the anticipated decline in construction projects in the new year, managers and counsel for remaining projects need to keep current on new construction insurance regulations. To help them stay up to date with the evolving regulations, the American Bar Association Forum on the Construction Industry, in conjunction with the ABA Section of Litigation’s Construction Litigation Committee, will host “Coverages, Disputes and Tactics for Survival: Critical Insurance and Litigation Issues and Insights,” a conference addressing key insurance concerns in the construction industry.

The meeting will take place Jan. 15 – 16 at the Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Hotel and Spa in Bonita Springs, Fla.

The two-day program consists of five plenary sessions and a series of comprehensive workshops, providing a wealth of information to new and seasoned construction lawyers and other construction industry practitioners.

Amid growing concerns for the environment, the conference also features “Sustainable Design and Construction: When Green Turns Red,” a workshop that explores various rewards and incentives for sustainable design and construction projects. This session will also answer such timely questions as what does it mean to insure a green project, or what does the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program mean for the industry?

Other conference highlights include programming on risk management, owner-controlled insurance programs, construction defect litigation and liability.The ABA Forum on the Construction Industry serves the construction industry through education and leadership. With 6,000 members, the forum is the largest organization of construction lawyers in the world. Its members represent all segments of the construction industry, including owners, design professionals, general contractors, construction managers, subcontractors, suppliers, insurers and sureties.

With more than 400,000 members, the American Bar Association is the largest voluntary professional membership organization in the world.  As the national voice of the legal profession, the ABA works to improve the administration of justice, promotes programs that assist lawyers and judges in their work, accredits law schools, provides continuing legal education, and works to build public understanding around the world of the importance of the rule of law.
