Six years after authoring their resourceful handbook, “The Handbook on Additional Insureds,” Wiggin and Dana partners Michael Menapace, Tim Diemand and Joe Grasso have released an updated follow-up in response to changes that have taken place in the field.

Noting that the state of additional insured coverage has changed dramatically and that there is a need for clear guidance, the authors say the new “Handbook on Additional Insureds” (ABA Book Publishing) is “steeped in the daily business and legal realities of insurance,” applying to everyone from construction contractors to event planners and from directors and officers to landlords and tenants, with increasing questions and complexities around the rights and obligations of an additional insured, as well as protection from liability claims.
