- Everything you need to know in 60 minutes about the impact of the Florida Supreme Court’s decision in Perera v. U.S. Fidelity & Guaranty Co. on third-party bad-faith actions against a non-settling insurer where the insurer’s actions did not expose the insured to an excess judgment

- Perspective on the impact of the Florida Supreme Court’s decision (answering a certified question from the Eleventh Circuit) on future third-party bad-faith actions against non-settling insurers where numerous insurance policies are implicated, where insurers in those circumstances may be less likely to participate in a global insurance settlement if they are not exposed to bad-faith liability in excess of their policy limits, and how future settlement agreements (including the assignment of equitable subrogation claims) may be negotiated and drafted

- The 10 questions being asked the most by insurance lawyers and their clients with respect to how this decision will impact them and what proactive steps they should be taking

- Case studies of what other insurance lawyers are doing for their clients, now and in the future, based on this ruling
