Stop Loss Law
The jurisprudence relating to transactions and dealings among self-insured employers, their TPAs, and the upstream entities that issue and administer stop loss contracts is maturing rapidly. What used to be a nearly invisible niche in the law is now responsible for the rules of decision affecting tens of millions of dollars of disputed claims annually. The legal norms and standards governing the relationships among the many entities involved in the self-insurance/stop-loss arena are complex and ever-changing.
Stop Loss Litigation
Cost-effective litigation in the stop-loss area requires efficiency and experience.
Stop Loss Consulting
Many problems develop into expensive litigation before counsel are consulted.
