Employee-related practices liability

Ordinance or law

A claim causing damage to your building is bad enough. Adding insult to injury, your building could be found inadequate according to current city, state, or federal ordinances when it’s time to rebuild. The standard property form does not cover increased construction costs to bring the building up to current code. Adding ordinance or law coverage can pay for these extra charges.
