Zalma on Diminution of Value Damages - 2013

This is the 2013 edition of Zalma On Diminution In Value Damages. It has been totally rewritten with more 910 pages of material. It is the most extensive and detailed coverage of the issue and how to apply diminution in value damages to losses to property. The E-book Zalma on Diminution In Value Damages – 2013 was written to provide sufficient information to those who became interested in the issue since the Georgia Supreme Court decided State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co. v. Mabry, 274 Ga. 498, 556 S.E.2d 114 (Ga. 11/28/2001).

 

New E-Book: Zalma on California SIU Regulations

Zalma On California SIU Regulations is an e-book designed to assist California insurance claims personnel, claims professionals, independent insurance adjusters, special fraud investigators, private investigators who work for the insurance industry, the management in the industry, the attorneys who serve the industry, and all integral anti-fraud personnel working with California admitted insurers to comply with the requirements of California SIU Claims Regulations.

By statute, the state of California requires all admitted insurers to maintain a Special Investigative Unit (an "SIU") that complies with the requirements set forth in the Special Investigative Unit Regulations (the "SIU Regulations") and that the insurer must train all integral anti-fraud personnel to recognize indicators of insurance fraud. Since almost every employee of an insurer who approaches a claim qualifies as "integral anti-fraud personnel" they must all be trained annually.
 

It is necessary, therefore, that insurance personnel who are engaged in any way in the presentation, processing, or negotiation of insurance claims in California be familiar with the SIU Regulations imposed by the state on all insurers doing business in the state and be in a position to prove to the California Department of Insurance that the SIU Regulations have been complied with and all integral anti-fraud personnel have been trained.
 

In addition to explaining the SIU Regulations the appendix contains an outline for the training required.
