HOME INSURANCE

From the Suffolk County Bar Association:

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HOME INSURANCE

A Free Public Service Program from the Suffolk Academy of Law

 

On Monday, October 6, the Suffolk Academy of Law, in conjunction with the SCBA Real Property Committee, will present a FREE public service seminar on HOME INSURANCE. The program runs from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. and will succinctly cover such topics as determining what kind of and how much insurance is needed, new legislation affecting flood insurance, procedures to follow after a loss, deductions, and calculating liability. PLEASE TELL YOUR CLIENTS, FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS about the program and invite them to attend.

Of course, attorneys - also home owners and renters - are invited to attend this free program as well.  And if you would like to earn 1.5 MCLE credits for the presentation, you may do so through the payment of a small tuition free ($35 for SCBA members; $50 for non-members).
