Synopsis

Consumers initiate thousands of defective-trade-and-products lawsuits, yet many are never able to collect damages due to insurers who refuse to pay these damages. Consumer Litigation and Insurance Defense is a casebook that fills this need by presenting a comprehensive analysis of state and federal consumer-law and insurance-defense decisions.

Consumer Litigation and Insurance Defense is a unique text that covers the statutes and corresponding caselaw for three critical and interrelated statutes:

- The Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act
- The NAIC Model Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Practices Act
- NAIC Model Unfair Claims Settlement Practices Act
